Hymn 232 - Those in His Image Shall Shine

Tho’ rugged the path where our duty may lead,

O! why should we ever repine?

When faithful and true is the promise to all,

That those in His image shall shine.

The grandeur of wealth, and the temples of fame,

Where beauty and splendor combine,

Will perish, forgotten and crumble to dust,

But those in His image shall shine.

Then let us go forth to the work yet to do,

With zeal that shall never decline.

Be strong in the Lord, and the promise believe

That those in His image shall shine.

REFRAIN

They shall shine as bright as stars

In heaven bejeweled with light;

And they that turn many to His righteousness

Shall shine as the stars ever bright.
