Divinely it shone with purest light;
Its wonderful rays the wise men led
To find the Saviour's lowly bed.
Chorus:
'Tis shining still, 'tis shining still,
That beautiful star, o'er plain and hill;
'Tis shining still, 'tis shining still,
Salvation's star of God's good will.
2 They knew by the word of truth divine,
'Twas time that the guiding star should shine;
They follow'd its light which shone afar,
'Twas Christ, "the bright and Morning Star." [Chorus]
3 We'll follow its light, like those of old,
The "Light of the World," by seers foretold;
We'll follow his light till we shall come
To perfect rest in heav'n, our home. [Chorus] Topics: Special Occasions Christmas; Special Occasions Christmas; Children's Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: [A beautiful star there rose one night]

F. E. Belden
1858 - 1945 Person Name: F. E. B. Author of "'Tis Shining Still" in Christ in Song Belden was born in Battle Creek, Michigan in 1858. He began writing music in his late teenage years after moving to California with his family. For health reasons he later moved to Colorado. He returned to Battle Creek with his wife in the early 1880s, and there he became involved in Adventist Church publishing. F. E. Belden wrote many hymn tunes, gospel songs, and related texts in the early years of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Belden was able to rapidly write both music and poetry together which enabled him to write a song to fit a sermon while it was still being delivered. He also wrote songs for evangelist Billy Sunday. Though Belden’s later years were marred by misunderstandings with the church leadership over his royalties, he did donate his papers and manuscripts to the church’s seminary at his death. He died on December 2, 1945 in Battle Creek, Michigan.
