Where is love when children are hungry
Faces lined with sorrow and tears
Where is light for those born in darkness
Hearts that grow to know only fear
Light the fire in every sacred heart
Light the fire and we can shine

Shine Your light, shine Your light
On every hill and mountain
Shine Your light, shine Your light
For all the world to see
Shine Your light, shine Your light
A beacon to the nations
Shine Your light, shine Your light
Where Jesus touches the earth

Where is peace when children are soldiers
Living by the rule of the gun
Where is hope when death is the only thing
they see though life has barely begun
Say the word in every willing heart
Say the word and we can shine

Shine Your light ...

Say the word in every human heart
Light the fire and we can shine

Shine Your light, shine Your light
On every town and village
Shine Your light, shine Your light
ON every lake and sea
Shine Your light, shine Your light
On every road and pathway
Shine Your light, shine Your light
Oh-oh-oh
Shine Your light, shine Your light
On every hill and mountain
Shine Your light, shine Your light
For all the world to see
Shine Your light, shine Your light
A beacon to the nations
Shine Your light, shine Your light
Where Jesus touches the earth
