shine

it was one of those rare ocassions that i get to enjoy the luxury of television when i saw the ad with this song as jingle. i suddenly was absorbed by the lyrics. can't help but rememeber that moment when God chose me and showed His glorious light. Sure enough i had a lot of dim moments after that, but everytime i was dumped into darkness, He would pick me up and would shine in His wondrous light, so bright that all my flaws are concealed and only His light will shine through.surely, i will never look or sing this song the same way again..


There I was alone in the shadow
Couldn't find my way
Then you came in
And brought along the sunshine
Now you're here to stay

(Chorus) You make me shine, shine
Like the stars in the heavens
Shine, shine
You keep me shinning through
Shine, shine
With the light that you give in, it's true
I'm shinning on, all because of you

So watch me go
A light shines within me
People ask me why
And I just smile & tell them you're the reason
I've cast the darkness aside

(Repeat Chorus)

(Coda) Like a ray of light
Coming through the night
bright as the stars in the sky
See how I shine
(Repeat Chorus 2x until fade
