Shining for Jesus (Oatman)

lyricist: Johnson Oatman, 1895
Composer: John Sweney

Shining for Je­sus ev­ery­where I go

Shining for Je­sus in this world of woe;

Shining for Je­sus

more like Him I grow;

Shining all the time for Je­sus.

Shining all the time

shin­ing all the time;

Shining for Je­sus

beams of love di­vine;

Glorifying Him ev­ery day and hour;

Shining all the time for Je­sus.

Shining for Je­sus

for He died for me;

Shining for Je­sus

for He set me free;

Shining for Je­sus

let the whole world see

Shining all the time for Je­sus.

Shining for Je­sus when the way is bright;

Shining for Je­sus in the dark­est night;

Shining for Je­sus

mak­ing bur­dens light;

Shining all the time for Je­sus.

Shining for Je­sus

with a help­ing hand

Shining for Je­sus

help­ing oth­ers stand;

Shining while march­ing to the heav’n­ly land

Shining all the time for Je­sus.
