Steadfast as Stars

"And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever" (Daniel 12:3).

The darker the night,
The more the stars shine.
And so is the light
That is yours and is mine.

This world is darkened
In these final days
As so few have hearkened,
Or give to God praise.

So let us endeavor,
Each one as a star,
To shine forth forever
Wherever we are.

By God's own design
In you and in me,
Let each of us shine
That our world may see.
