Beautiful Star, Shine On

Author: E. Rinehart Hymnal: Gospel Praise Book. #6 (1885) First Line: On stormy seas I sail my bark Refrain First Line: Shine on, shine on, shine on Lyrics: 1 On stormy seas I sail my bark, Nor fear for once the billows dark; For streaming from the skies afar Shines out the bright, the morning star. Refrain: Shine on, shine on, shine on, O beautiful, beautiful star; Shine on, shine on, shone on, O beautiful star. 2 When on the crested wave I’m borne, Amid the tumult of the storm; Or, when the sea is calm and still, ‘Tis by that light I read God’s will. [Chorus] 3 Beyond the main a joyous band Is waiting on the shining strand, To welcome to that peaceful shore My little bark, its perils o’er. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [On stormy seas I sail my bark]
