Keep On Shinin'

For the past few weeks, this song has been playing in my car c-o-n-s-t-a-n-t-l-y and has been a huge blessing and challenge to me. As I drive to varsity or work, I am reminded to "keep on shining" and to not be ashamed of this amazing news that I have - why keep it a secret? How selfish is that!? I could have literally written this song myself - that's how accurately it describes my thoughts when it comes to witnessing. I guess that's why I like it so much. Hope it blesses y'all as much as it did for me. Oh yeah...keep on shining, people.

"Keep On Shinin'"
THIRD DAY

It feels like forever since I can remember
It seems like it's always been this way
Keep the good news to ourselves, like a secret we'll never tell
I don't know why we've been so ashamed

But changes are in the air, sparks are starting everywhere
And oh, what a sweet, sweet sound
With millions of voices, singing new choruses
Leading the way to higher ground

Keep on, keep on shinin'
Wherever you may be
Keep on, keep on shinin'
For all the world to see

Having faith in the long run is easier said than done
It's hard to live out in the light of day
You're bruised and you're battered, your dreams have been shattered
Your best laid plans scattered over the place

Despite all your tendencies, God sees it differently
Your struggle's a time to grow
And you, you're a miracle, anything but typical
It's time for the whole wide world to know

Philippians 2:15 - that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe
