O Morning Star! Arise ere day is broken,
Shine, Thou, dear Lord—our hope, our light, our way;
Thou art that noble root and fruit of David,
Lucent above, guides to a perfect day.

O Morning Star! Arise in secret stillness,
Break through the gloom, the darkness of this age;
Burst forth, Thou Sun of Righteousness, in splendor!
Come now, our King, turn Thou a glorious page.

O Morning Star! Ascend before the dawning,
In twilight radiate—how clear and bright!
While here we love and wait for Thy dear coming,
Silently, Thou illuminate our night.

O Morning Star! Spring forth from my heart’s fountain,
As we attend to Thy prophetic word;
Glow as a lamp amidst apostate darkness,
Until the morn arrives in all the earth.
As we attend to Thy prophetic word;
Glow as a lamp amidst apostate darkness,
Until the morn arrives in all the earth.

Midst this black hour, we wait for Thy return.
Earnestly longing for Thy hidden presence;
Our fond Reward, for Thee we dearly yearn!
Midst this black hour, we wait for Thy return.
