The Wise Shall Shine

They that be wise shall shine as the skies

In the fir­ma­ment’s ra­di­ant light

And they that turn many to right­eous­ness

Shall shine as the stars

for­ev­er bright.

The wise shall shine

As the fir­ma­ment’s glit­ter­ing light

And they that turn ma­ny to right­eous­ness

As the stars

for­ev­er bright.

They that be wise shall live for the skies

Tho’ rugged the path­way of right;

The pure and true an­gels of faith

hope and love

To shine as the stars

for­ev­er bright.

They that be wise shall point to the skies

All the way­ward in sin’s deep­est blight

That they

too

be­liev­ing

do God’s right­eous­ness

May shine as the stars

for­ev­er bright.
