Shine your light, a - gainst the dark, stand upright and make your mark
Do your best, wher - ever you may be, and shine your light for me
Long ago when I was just, a boy of tender years
My father told me life's a road, paved with joy and tears
And as you travel you must choose, between what's right and wrong
Remember sin is giving in, for Heaven's sake be strong
Shine your light, a - gainst the dark, stand upright and make your mark
Do your best, wher - ever you may be, and shine your light for me
As I grew be - yond my teens, the world began to press
My father's words be - gan to fade, lost to selfish - ness
And after years of walking down, the wrong side of the track
One night I cried and deep inside, my father's words came back
Shine your light, a - gainst the dark, stand upright and make your mark
Do your best, wher - ever you may be, and shine your light for me
My father said that kindness is, the light of God in man
So I was told to shine like gold, on every - one I can
VERSE 3 KEY CHANGE
I changed my ways and did my best, to right the wrong I'd done
I settled down and in a year, God blessed us with a son
Now he's barely nine years old, a learner on life's way
He wonders why a day goes by, he doesn't hear me say
Shine your light, a - gainst the dark, stand upright and make your mark
Do your best, wher - ever you may be, and shine your light for me
Shine your light, a - gainst the dark, stand upright and make your mark
Do your best, wher - ever you may be, and shine your light, and shine your light
Do your best, wher - ever you may be, and shine your light for me
Shine your light, a - gainst the dark, stand upright and make your mark
Do your best, wher - ever you may be, and shine your light for me
Long ago when I was just, a boy of tender years
My father told me life's a road, paved with joy and tears
And as you travel you must choose, between what's right and wrong
