Brightest and Best of the Stars
Author: Reginald Heber Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 911 hymnals Scripture: Job 38:7 First Line: Brightest and best of the stars of the morning Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and come to our aid;
star of the east, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
2 What shall we give him, in costly devotion?
Shall we bring incense and offerings divine,
gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,
myrrh from the forest or gold from the mine?
3 Vainly we offer each lavish oblation,
vainly with gifts would his favor secure;
richer by far is the heart’s adoration,
dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.
4 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and come to our aid;
star of the east, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid!

Author: Fanny Crosby Appears in 1,057 hymnals Scripture: Job 1-42 First Line: Blessed assurance: Jesus is mine! Refrain First Line: This is my story, this is my song Lyrics: 1 Blessed assurance: Jesus is mine!
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
born of his Spirit, washed in his blood.
Refrain:
This is my story, this is my song,
praising my Savior all the day long;
this is my story, this is my song,
praising my Savior all the day long.
2 Perfect submission, perfect delight,
visions of *rapture now burst on my sight;
angels descending bring from above
echoes of mercy, whispers of love. [Refrain]
3 Perfect submission: all is at rest,
I in my Savior am happy and blest;
watching and waiting, looking above,
filled with his goodness, lost in his love. [Refrain]
* used here in the sense of glory, ecstatic joy

Who formed the worlds on high,
Who taught the planets where to trace
Their orbits in the sky.

O'er land and ocean fly,
And to the wondering world declare
The message from on high.

Of our eternal God,
Whose kingdom, in these latter days,
Is spreading far abroad.

Who hath a feast prepared,
The glorious gospel standard raised,
The ancient faith restored.
