Topic: Shine On Christmas

Song I wrote in response to a post in SOTM

Hope you like it...... and I hope it's good enough that someone with musical talent (which I sorely lack ) could
give it a go.

Thanks in advance

Jim


Shine on Christmas By Jim Kenyon


Verse 1


.


[C] When Jesus was born that evening, so many years ago


The [F] angels were not singing to make a [C]holiday you know


[F]Peace on Earth and good will to all, oh, they [C]knew he was the one


Let [G]Christmas always be about the birth of [F]God's only [C]son




Verse 2


.


[C]King of Kings, Lord of Lords,a servant to the lost and poor


He [F]is the light and the way, he’s the [C]path through heaven’s door


[F]Forgiveness and redemption, are there for [C] all who believe


So [G]sing Hallelujah, for the birth of Christ, he's the [F]Prince of [C]Peace


.


Chorus


.


[F]So shine on Christmas, let us hear angels [C]voices fill the air


Like [F] wind that you can’t see, know [C]that Jesus is there


[F]shine on, shine on so brightly, oh [C] Christmas, shine so bright


And [G] remind us of the birth of Jesus, on that [F]holy December [C] night



.


Verse 3


3




[C]May the Spirit of Christmas fill your heart with peace and joy


May [F]the mystery of believing, find the home of [C]every girl and boy


[F]May the power of the Holy Spirit bring a [C]smile to your face


And [G] may faith, love, and hope, bring you an [F] everlasting [C] grace


.


Chorus


.


[F]So shine on Christmas, let us hear angels [C]voices fill the air


Like [F] wind that you can’t see, know [C]that Jesus is there


[F]shine on, shine on so brightly, oh [C] Christmas, shine so bright


And [G] remind us of the birth of Jesus, on that [F]holy December [C] night




And [G] remind us of the birth of Jesus, on that [F]holy December [C] night


And [G] remind us of the birth of Jesus, on that [F]holy December [C] night


And [G] remind us of the birth of Jesus, on that [F]holy December [C] night

Your vision is not limited by what your eye can see, but what your mind can imagine.
Make your life count, and the world will be a better place because you tried.
