After an okay day, I decided to go to spiritandsong.com after
a parishioner mentioned the site after Mass. Praise the
Lord!! Great song Tom!

We play this one at our church so it is close to my heart. Tom did an awesome job of matching the music to such powerful words.

Lyrics


Refrain
Dear Jesus, help me to spread your
fragrance ev'rywhere that I go.
Dear Jesus, flood my soul
with your spirit and your love.
Verses
1. Penetrate and possess my being
so utterly that all my life
may only be a radiance of you.
2. Shine through me and be so in me
that ev'ry soul I come
in contact with
may feel your presence
in my soul.
3. Let them look up and see
no longer me but only you,
my Jesus.
Stay with me and then
I shall begin to shine
as you shine so to shine
as a light to all.
