Representative Text

1 Star of the morning, beam on our way;
Break thro’ the darkness, bring on the day;
Haste thro’ the shades of the lingering night,
Now let thy glory flash out on our sight.

Refrain:
Star of the morning,
Star of the morning,
Break thro’ the darkness,
And bring the glad day.

2 Star of the morning, gleam on our tears;
Scatter the darkness, banish our fears;
Give to our longings the joys thou dost bring;
Give to our rapture our Savior and king. [Refrain]

3 Star of the morning, shine thro’ the gloom;
Gleam thro’ the shadows, shrouding the tomb;
Waken the nations that slumber beneath;
Speedily vanquish the power of death. [Refrain]

4 Bride of Immanuel, cease from thy tears.
Lo! in the daybreak glory appears;
Fast flies the storm cloud, the darkness is past;
Morning is coming with blessings at last. [Refrain]
