Waking up to another life    
No more sorrow and
no more night      
You’re the light, let it shine
now, let it
shine now

Burning bright cause we’re
not ashamed    
Got a world to
illuminate      
You’re the light, let it shine
now, let it shine now

Nothing can stand
against us  
Our praise will break the

We declare,
Your kingdom’s here       
Because our God is for us  
We’re living in the promise      
We declare,
Your kingdom’s here

Shadows fade as you now arise
Hope is here with no end in sight
You’re the light, let it shine now,
let it shine now You’re the light,
let it shine now, let it shine now

Shine a light, shine a light
Shine a light, shine a light

We’ve got a light and we’re gonna shine
Forever let your name be glorified

Shine A Light - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]

In the song “Shine A Light” by Elevation Worship, we are reminded of the power of God’s light in our lives. We are encouraged to let His light shine in the darkness and to declare His kingdom here.

The Bible tells us in John 8:12, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” Jesus is the ultimate source of light and hope in our lives. He is the one who brings us out of the darkness and into the light. 

The lyrics of the song remind us that we are not ashamed of the light of God that shines in us. We are called to be a light to the world and to illuminate the darkness with the hope of Jesus. We are to declare His kingdom here and to live in the promise of His love and grace. 

The Bible tells us in Matthew 5:14-16, “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” 

We are called to shine a light for the world to see. We are to be a beacon of hope and love in a dark and broken world. We are to let our light shine and to glorify God in all that we do. 

Let us take a moment to reflect on the words of this song and to remember the power of God’s light in our lives. Let us be a light to the world and to declare His kingdom here. Let us shine a light and glorify God in all that we do.
