The popular British songwriter Graham Kendrick introduced this song to the UK in 1987 and it has been sung in churches around the world ever since. The song is a call to let the light of Jesus shine and the Word of God go forth to every nation. This dynamic praise-and-worship song is contemporary, up-tempo, and sure to engage the hearts of anyone who sings it or listens to it. Often used as a congregational worship song, you may want to have your congregation join the choir on the choruses. Use this arrangement to teach your congregation the song in blended worship settings. “Shine, Jesus, Shine” is ideal for missionary and evangelistic emphases and even Epiphany. Unison and 2-part writing in the verses with repetitive SAB choruses make this a snap to learn. Suitable for youth, adults, and “praise teams.”
