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
