What star is this



Jeremiah Clarke - What star is this - текст песни (слова)

What star is this with beams so bright, 
 More beauteous than the noonday light? 
 It shines to herald forth the King, 
 And Gentiles to His cradle bring. 
 
 See now fulfilled what God decreed, 
 'From Jacob shall a star proceed'; 
 And eastern sages with amaze 
 Upon the wondrous vision gaze. 
 
 The guiding star above is bright; 
 Within them shines a clearer light, 
 Which leads them on with power benign 
 To seek the Giver of the sign. 
 
 True love can brook no dull delay, 
 Nor toil nor dangers stop their way; 
 Home, kindred, fatherland, and all 
 They leave at their Creator's call. 
 
 O Jesus, while the star of grace 
 Allures us now to seek Thy Face, 
 Let not our slothful hearts refuse 
 The guidance of that light to use.
