And, in songs of grateful praise,
Glory give to God on high.
209. 11s. & 10s. M. Heber.
Star of the East.
1Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid;
Star of the East,--the horizon adorning,--
Guide where the infant Redeemer is laid.
2Cold on his cradle the dew-drops are shining;
Low lies his head with the beasts of the stall;
