BEAUTIFUL STAR
Beautiful Star whom I love,
Wondrous Sun shining on me.
Beautiful Star I ask only to love,
None but Thee.
Refrain:
Beautiful Star, morning star
Of this holy day,
Gentle Star, light my nights,
Light of my life.
From the skies you came down, bright star
To save my soul.
Gracious starbeam, you soothe my heart
And make me whole. Refrain:
Constant Star, I want never to be
Far from your sight.
When the world darkens about me bright star,
I dwell in your light. Refrain:
-17th Century Carol
