  • Newsboys Newsboys - Shine Lyrics

           

    dull as dirt
    you can´t assert the kind of light
    that might persuade
    a strict dictator to retire
    fire the army
    teach the poor origami
    the truth is in
    the proof is when
    you hear your heart start asking,
    "What´s my motivation?"


    and try as you may, there isn´t a way
    to explain the kind of change
    that would make an Eskimo renounce fur
    that would make a vegetarian barbecue hamster
    unless you can trace this about-face
    to a certain sign...

    Chorus
    shine
    make ´em wonder what you´ve got
    make ´em wish that they were not
    on the outside looking bored
    shine
    let it shine before all men
    let´em see good works, and then
    let ´em glorify the Lord

    out of the shaker and onto the plate
    it isn´t Karma
    it sure ain´t fate
    that would make a Deadhead sell his van
    that would make a schizophrenic turn in his crayons
    Oprah freaks
    and science seeks a rationale
    that shall excuse
    this strange behavior

    when you let it shine
    you will inspire
    the kind of entire turnaround
    that would make a bouncer take ballet
    (even bouncers who aren't happy)
    but out of the glare
    with nowhere to turn
    you ain´t gonna learn it on "What´s My Line?"
