Representative Text

1 Star of hope to wand’rers weary,
Sailing o’er life’s troubled sea,
Spare a beam, O spare it kindly,
Shine, sweet star, O shine on me.

Refrain:
Star of hope, my star of hope,
Shining brightly o’er the sea,
O spare a beam, O spare it kindly;
Shine sweet star, O shine on me.

2 Far from shore, and deep the water,
Dark the night, so dark and long;
O’er the floods the winds so stormy,
Blow in anger fierce and strong. [Refrain]

3 I am bound for shores eternal;
They will shine at break of day;
Be with me until the morning,
Lord, be with me all the way. [Refrain]
