Lyrics
O Star of morning,
O Star of night,
The prophets' telling,
The Son is born,
And in whose coming,
All dark will cease,
In ageless, promised morn.
O Star of morning,
O Star of night,
Your time of waiting,
Bursts forth in light,
And with your coming,
O Christ, the King,
You shine in glory bright.
Long awaited One,
Whose light is life,
You come to us a sacrifice,
O Star of morning,
Star of night,
Become salvation's light.
