Stars in the Universe

Make us shine
Make us shine, shine

This is a desperate generation
We search for answers within ourselves
Hanging our hopes on speculation
Claiming to be wise but proving something else
Lord, in an age that's so confused
May our lives proclaim Your truth

Make us shine like stars in the universe
Pushing back the powers of the night
Make us shine like stars in the universe
Holding out, holding out the Word of life

Make us shine, shine

Lies and deception all around us
What once was evil is now esteemed
But Your persistent love has found us
Though we stood condemned
Our lives have been redeemed
Lord, make us innocent and pure
In this dark, polluted world

Make us shine like stars in the universe
Pushing back the powers of the night
Make us shine like stars in the universe
Holding out, holding out the Word of life
Holding out, holding out the Word of life

We’ll work out with fear and trembling
This salvation we've received
For we know Your Spirit's in us
To give us all the strength we need
The strength we need

And make us shine like stars in the universe
Pushing back the powers of the night
Make us shine like stars in the universe
Holding out, holding out the Word of life

Make us shine like stars in the universe
Pushing back the powers of the night
Make us shine like stars in the universe
Holding out, holding out the Word of life

Lord, make us shine, make us shine
Like the stars in the universe

Make us shine like stars in the universe
Pushing back the powers of the night
Make us shine like stars in the universe
Make us shine like stars in the universe
Make us shine
