With joy, ye saints attend, and raise
Your voices in harmonious praise;
Blest Spirit, every heart prepare,
To sing the bright, the Morning star.
In glory bright the Saviour reigns,
And endless grandeur there sustains;
We view his beams, and from afar
Hail him the bright the Morning-star.
Blest Star! where'er his lustre shines,
He all the soul with grace refines;
And makes each happy saint declare,
He is the bright, the Morning-star.
Sweet Star! his influence is divine;
Life, peace, and joy, attending shine;
Death, hell, and sin, before him flee:
The bright, the Morning-star is he.
Great Star! in whom salvation dwells,
His beam the thickest cloud dispels;
The grossest darkness flies afar,
Before this bright, this Morning-star.
Most glorious Star! be thou our guide,
Nor from our souls thy splendour hide;
Let nothing thy sweet beams debar,
Thou only bright and Morning-star.
Eternal Star! our songs shall rise,
When we shall meet thee in the skies;
And, in eternal anthems, there
Praise thee, the bright, the Morning-star.
