Shine Like Stars

You alone are worthy
You alone are great
You gave us our salvation
With fear and trembling
We press on

You alone are mighty
You work in us to will
You work in us to act
According to your goodness
Your purpose

Shine like stars
In this universe
Shine like stars
And be blameless and pure

Shine like stars
Be the generation
That holds out the word of life

And even when my life is poured out
Like an offering, a sacrifice to You,
I will still be glad and rejoice,
Be glad and rejoice



12Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, 13for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose.


14Do everything without complaining or arguing, 15so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe 16as you hold out[c] the word of life—in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing. 17But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you. 18So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.

Philippians 2:12-16
