Morning Star ablaze at night

Morning Star ablaze at night

Do come in

enlighten me;

Save me from my still-dark state

Let Thy light shine brilliantly!

Be my hope

my wait

my want

Looking toward Thee

ne’er afar

Trusting in Thee—Light of life

All-transcending

heav’nly Star!

Morning Star still burning bright

Set aflame my inward being;

Fill my heart with radiant light

Rays of love as Spirit bring!

My sure faith when none is there

Shepherd

Thou dost truly care;

Living in me

Thou would’st move

In my heart spread everywhere.

Morning Star—arise and shine

Lead my path

direct my way;

As the guiding cloud of yore

Fire by night and cloud by day;

Let Thy word e’er open be;

Through each line

shine into me;

Till the day dawns—Thee to see

Face to face—no veil between.

Morning Star

Thou dost appear

Ever brighter

ever near;

Rising

beaming

in my heart

What a joy

this sight so clear!

In Thy presence darkness flees;

In Thy light

how glad are we

Waiting

watching

seeking Thee

Thy dear coming hastening.
