We are not what we should be,
We haven't sought what we
We should seek,
We've seen Your glory, Lord,
And looked away.
Our hearts are bent,
Our eyes are dim,
Our finest works are stained with sin,
And emptiness has shadowed
All our ways.
CHORUS
Jesus Christ, shine into our night,
Drive our dark away
Till Your glory fills our eyes.
Jesus Christ shine into our night,
Bind us to Your cross
Where we find life.
Still we often go astray,
We chase the world,
Forget Your grace, but
You have never failed
To bring us back.
Reveal the depths of
What You've done,
The death You died, the vict'ry won,
You made a way for us
To know Your love.
CHORUS
Jesus Christ, shine into our night,
Drive our dark away
Till Your glory fills our eyes.
Jesus Christ shine into our night,
Bind us to Your cross
Where we find life.
