Cântăre Jesus Bids Us Shine

1. 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, sees 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—we must shine,

You in your small corner, and I in mine.
