Like a shadow in the dark Hidden from their eyes Nothing is revealed to the unbelieving mind For those of us who see We must lead the way And glorify His name in all we do and say Jesus showed us how to live How to love and to forgive Now the message must be taken to the world We are the salt of the earth Reflections of His glory Salt of the earth Beacons of His light, yeah In a darkened world we shine Like stars up in the sky Holding out the Holy word of life We walk upon this land And for Christ we stand Called to live our lives out righteously Jesus told us from the start Blessed are the pure in heart They will surely feel the presence of the Lord Salt of the earth
