Ray Boltz - Does The Light Still Shine lyrics

He used to run the mission

This old friend of mine

And it stood down on the corner

Underneath a neon sign

Had a cross that lit up heaven

And the message "Jesus Saves"

And each week at the old folks' home

His question was the same

CHORUS:

Does the light still shine?

Does the light still shine?

Is it bright enough

For the lost to find?

Does the light still shine?

Now how was I to tell him

They tore the old sign down,

Explain about electric codes,

And zoning in the town

I knew that it would break his heart,

I didn't want to lie

So I just held his hand and smiled

When he asked me the last time,

CHORUS

In a quiet ceremony

I began to understand

After all the testimonies

For this ordinary man

He took them in, he gave them food

He taught them of God's grace

And as they spoke

I saw a light

Shining on each face

And you may not believe it

But I tell you that's it true

The light kept growing brighter

Until it filled the room

I heard a voice say,

This, my friend, is what

I was speaking of...

When you touch someone in Jesus' name

There shines the light of love

Oh the light still shines

Oh the light still shines

Yes it's bright enough

For the lost to find

Oh the light still shines

Oh the light still shines

Yes the light still shines

And it's bright enough

For the lost to find

Oh the light still shines

Yes the light still shines
