The Morning Star upon us gleams; How full of grace and truth His beams, How passing fair His splendor! Good Shepherd, David's proper heir, My King in heav'n, Thou dost me bear Upon Thy bosom tender Hearest, Dearest, Highest, brighest, Thou delightest Still to love me, Thou so high enthroned above me, 2. Strike deep into this heart of mine Thy rays of love, Thou Star divine, And fire its dying embers: And grant that naught have pow'r to part Me from Thy body, Lord, who art The life of all Thy members I stand, Thy hand Ever taking, Ne'er forsaking: Naught shall ail met Bread of Life, Thou wilt not fail me. 3. Thou, mighty Father, in Thy Son Didst love me, ere Thou hadst begun This ancient world's foundation. Thy Son hath made a friend of me, And when in spirit Him I see I've done with tribulation. What bliss Is this! Where He liveth Me He giveth Life for ever, Nothing me from Him can sever. 4. Lift up the voice and strike the string, Let all glad sounds of music ring In God's high praises blended. Christ will be with me all the way, Today, tomorrow ev'ry day, Till trav'ling days be ended. Sing out, Ring out Triumph glorious, O victorious, Chosen nation; Praise the God of your salvation. Browse Carols: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
