Shine On Us - Josh Wilson

Yeah, oh, this city doesn’t sleep at night

At ten o’clock it comes alive

There’s 20 million people, then there’s me

A taxi driver every day

A lot of work, a little pay

Just looking for a way to find some peace

But finding peace is way too hard

When you’re looking in the dark

So shine, shine, shine on us

Oh God, we need Your love

These streets aren’t bright enough

Oh Jesus, shine on us, yeah

I’m sitting on this corner here

My dignity just disappears

With every coin I beg into this cup

No matter how much people pay

It doesn’t matter anyway

It never ever seems to be enough

The light inside my heavy heart

Is getting way too dark

So shine, shine, shine on us

Oh God, we need Your love

These streets aren’t bright enough

Oh Jesus, shine on us

(Shine, shine, shine, shine)

(Shine)

God above is full of mercy

(Shine)

Turning darkness into dawn

(Shine)

All you who are weak and weary

(Shine)

Lift your heads and sing this song

Shine, shine, shine on us

Oh God, we need Your love

These streets aren’t bright enough

Oh Jesus, shine on us

(Shine)

Shine, shine, shine on us

(Shine)

Oh God, we need Your love

These streets aren’t bright enough

Oh God, we need your love

These streets aren’t bright enough

Oh Jesus, shine on us, yeah, yeah
