The sky no longer overcast;
The night of gloomy error past,
The bright, the glorious Morning Star,
Extends his influence wide and far.
O Morning Star still nearer draw;
Shine thro' thy Word, unfold Thy law!
Then shall we see the light increase
A Sun of righteousness and peace.
The gentle dew of truth distils
Refreshing valleys, plains and hills;
Each soul that seeks in Christ his good
Is now sustained with heavenly food.
O Morning Star still nearer draw;
Shine thro' thy Word, unfold Thy law!
Then shall we see the light increase
A Sun of righteousness and peace.
The Spirit cries within us, Come!
The bride the Church invites us home;
E'en so, come quickly, blessed Lord,
And be by heaven and earth adored.
O Morning Star still nearer draw;
Shine thro' thy Word, unfold Thy law!
Then shall we see the light increase
A Sun of righteousness and peace.
