O Morning Star, how fair and bright! Thou beamest forth in truth and light, O Sovereign meek and lowly! Thou Root of Jesse, David's Son, My Lord and Master, Thou hast won My heart to serve Thee solely! Thou art holy, Fair and glorious, all victorious, rich in blessing Rule and might over all possessing. Thou heavenly Brightness! Light divine! O deep within my heart now shine, And make Thee there an altar! Fill me with joy and strength to be Thy member, ever, joined to Thee In love that cannot falter; Toward Thee longing Doth possess me; turn and bless me; here in sadness Eye and heart long for Thy gladness!
