Lyrics
Font size:
A beautiful star arose one night,
Divinely it shone with purest light;
Its wonderful rays the wise men led,
To find the Saviour’s lowly bed.
[CHORUS]
‘Tis shining still, ‘tis shining still,
That beautiful star, o’er plain and hill;
‘Tis shining still, ‘tis shining still,
Salvation’s star of God’s good will.
They knew by the word of truth divine,
‘Twas time that the guiding star should shine;
They followed its light which shone afar,
‘Twas Christ, “the bright and morning star.”
We’ll follow its light, like those of old,
The “Light of the World,” by seers foretold;
We’ll follow his light till we shall come,
To perfect rest in heaven, my home.
Divinely it shone with purest light;
Its wonderful rays the wise men led,
To find the Saviour’s lowly bed.
[CHORUS]
‘Tis shining still, ‘tis shining still,
That beautiful star, o’er plain and hill;
‘Tis shining still, ‘tis shining still,
Salvation’s star of God’s good will.
They knew by the word of truth divine,
‘Twas time that the guiding star should shine;
They followed its light which shone afar,
‘Twas Christ, “the bright and morning star.”
We’ll follow its light, like those of old,
The “Light of the World,” by seers foretold;
We’ll follow his light till we shall come,
To perfect rest in heaven, my home.
