A Beautiful Star Arose One Night,
Divinely It Shone With Purest Light;
Its Wonderful Rays The Wise Men Led
To Find The Savior’s Lowly Bed.
’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, Our Home.
