Lyrics - Shine This Light by Marleys Ghost

(
Chorus:)
Shine this light (sufferin' in the night of my....)
Shine this light (sufferin' in the night of my....)
Shine this light, sufferin' in the dark night, in the night of my soul.
Well, you stop and read about
Jonah, way down in
Canaan land.
He would not do his
Lord's will, he was smitten by
His hand.
Cast out into the ocean and swallowed by a whale,three days and nights he saw not light, his strength began to fail.
But he turned his heart to heaven - "
Lord,
I am in
Your hands!""
Then do
My will, you cannot fail".
He was delivered on dry land.
Singin'...(
Chorus)
Well, you read about the
Hebrew children and their trial in
Babylon.
Old
Nebuchadnezzar had an idol of gold and he said all must bow down.
He cried unto his people, "
Worship my god, you will!"
But when all of
Babylon had bowed down, the children stood there still.
They were brought before
Nebuchadnezzar and he threw them in the fire.
But the
Angel came and cooled the flames and they prayed to
God on high.
Singin'...(
Chorus)
Won't you'...(
Chorus)
Well, you read about
Paul the
Apostle, the one that was called
Saul,sent by the priests from
Jerusalem to bind the
Christians all.
On his way down to
Damascus, cut down by a mighty light;"
Know that
I am the
Lord thy
God, in three days,
I'll return your sight."
Those with him could not understand 'cause he could not explain.
He was reborn, he had been shown the power of
God's
Name!(
Chorus)
Won't you'(
Chorus)
