Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.1138
First Line: Jesus bids us shine with a clear, pure light,
Jesus bids us shine with a clear, pure light,
Like a little candle burning in the night ;
In this world of darkness we must shine —
You in your small corner, and I in mine.
2 Jesus bids us shine, first of all for Him ;
Well He sees and knows it, if our light is dim;
He looks down from heaven, to see us shine —
You in your small corner, and I in mine.
3 Jesus bids us shine, then ; for, all around,
Many kinds of darkness in this world abound :
Sin and want and sorrow; so we must shine —
You in your small corner, and I in mine.
