What Star Is This, with Beams So Bright? (EN 192)

EN 192 What Star Is This, with Beams So Bright?

Num.24.17

Versi Version 1

1

What star is this, with beams so bright,

More lovely than the noonday light?

’Tis sent to announce a newborn King,

Glad tidings of our God to bring.

2

’Tis now fulfilled what God decreed,

“From Jacob shall a star proceed”;

And lo! the Eastern sages stand

To read in heaven the Lord’s command.

3

While outward signs the star displays,

An inward light the Lord conveys,

And urges them, with force benign,

To seek the Giver of the sign.

4

True love can brook no dull delay;

Nor toil nor dangers stop their way

Home, kindred, father land and all

They leave at their Creator’s call.

5

O, while the star of heavenly grace

Invites us, Lord, to seek Thy face,

May we no more that grace repel,

Or quench that light which shines so well!

6

To God the Father, God the Son,

And Holy Spirit, Three in One,

May every tongue and nation raise

An endless song of thankful praise!
