Jesus, Thou Art That Morning Star!

lyricist: Charles Wesley, 1762
Composer: Franz Haydn (1732–1809)

Jesus

Thou art that morn­ing star!

Thy bright­ness in my heart de­clare;

To me Thine on­ly glo­ry show

Thine on­ly self on me be­stow;

I want no other light to see

No oth­er stars or sun but Thee.

Who walk en­lighten­ed by Thy light

Their morn hath no suc­ceed­ing night;

They by re­flect­ed lus­ter shine

And bright in ma­jes­ty di­vine

Admire with all those stars ab­ove

The Light of life

the God of love.
