E. J Bellerby (583/413) -- Hymns and Spiritual Songs

E. J Bellerby SHINE on me, O Lord Jesus, And let me ever know The grace that shone from Calvary, Where Thou didst love me so. “My child, I am thy Saviour. ’Tis not what thou dost feel, But Mine own gracious promise, Which does thy pardon seal.” 2 Shine in me, O Lord Jesus, And let Thy searching light Reveal each hidden purpose, Each thought as in Thy sight. “My child, I am thy Searcher, I try each loving heart, For I would have most holy All who in Me have part.” 3 Shine through me then, Lord Jesus, That all the world may see The life I live is Thy life, And thus be drawn to Thee. “My child, I am thy Power; With those who hear My voice I ever dwell, and use them, Thus making them rejoice” 4 Shine out, shine out, Lord Jesus, Thou light of all the world; Oh, let Thy Gospel banner Be everywhere unfurled! “My child, hast thou forgotten That name is also thine? My fruit is borne on branches, Not by the parent Vine” 5 Arise and shine, Lord Jesus, Thou Bright and Morning Star; I long for Thine appearing, When peace shall follow war. “My child, before I gather My family in one, Its number needs completing; Towards this, what hast thou done?”
