Shine Your Light

歌詞

CHORUS: Shine your light against the dark Stand upright and make your mark Do your best wherever you may be And shine your light for me ------- Long ago when I was just A boy of tender years My father told me life's a road Paved with joy and tears And as you travel you must choose Between what's right and wrong Remember sin is giving in For Heaven's sake be strong ------- REPEAT CHORUS: ------- As I grew beyond my teens The world began to press My father's words began to fade Lost to selfishness And after years of walking down The wrong side of the track One night I cried and deep inside My father's words came back ------- REPEAT CHORUS: ------- My father said that kindness is The light of God in man So I was told to shine like gold On everyone I can I changed my ways and did my best To right the wrong I'd done I settled down and in a year God blessed us with a son Now he's barely nine years old A learner on life's way He wonders why a day goes by He doesn't hear me say ------- REPEAT CHORUS: --------- Do your best wherever you may be And shine your light Shine your light Do your best wherever you may be And shine your light for me
