Let My Light Shine

By Julie Kinscheck c.2008

Verse: Oh, Lord, I am an alien
A stranger in this world
You'd think I had 3 heads and 7 beady eyes
How people run the other way
When I clearly speak your name
When in truth it's me who is afraid

Chorus: To let my light shine

Be that shining city on the hill Oh, Let my light shine
To lead those weary travelers To the safety of your will
Don't let me hide your spirit
That guides my wayward soul
Oh let my light shine---
Help me lead your children home

Verse: Oh, Lord you give me passion
In my heart I long to share
The miracles you've done in me- Amazing!
But the candle burns a fragile flame
Oh, Word of truth come stoke the blaze
‘Cause I wanna be a living sacrifice of praise!

Chorus: To let my light shine
Be that shining city on the hill Oh, Let my light shine
To lead those weary travelers To the safety of your wil
l Don't let me hide your spirit
That guides my wayward soul
Oh let my light shine---
Help me lead your children

Home, home, home to heaven Home, home to your Kingdom

Bridge: Let me show your power (Ah- Ah- MERCY!)
Your mercy and your grace
How to use your holy Word (Ah-AH- Battles)
To fight the battles we all face

Your magnificent creation
The miracles of prayer
Our mighty savior Jesus
And how he’s helped me change!

Chorus: To let my light shine
Be that shining city on the hill
Oh, let my light shine
To lead those weary travelers
To the safety of your will
Don't let me hide your spirit
That guides my wayward soul
Oh let my light, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine!
Help me lead your children home
