Shining for Jesus (Brown)

Into the world with a mis­sion

Kept by His boun­ti­ful care

God the kind Fa­ther has sent us

Tidings of Je­sus to bear.

Help us to know Thee

dear Sav­ior

Simple and pure as Thou art;

Then in the spir­it of meek­ness

May we Thy love-light im­part.

Happy of heart is the Christ­ian

Cheered by a pre­sence di­vine;

Jesus be­side him is walk­ing

Giving him pow­er to shine.

Gloomy and dark are the sha­dows

Where sin and sor­row abound;

Jesus would have His dis­ci­ples

Spreading His sun­shine around.

This

then

shall be our en­dea­vor

Loyal dis­ci­ples to be;

Lighting the dark­ness for Je­sus

Shining

dear Sav­ior

for Thee.
