Star of the East, oh Bethlehem's star Guiding us onto heaven afar Sorrow and grief are lulled by thy light Thou hope of each mortal in death's lonely night Fearless and tranquil, we look up to Thee Knowing thou beam'st through eternity Help us to follow where Thou still dost guide Pilgrims of earth so wide Star of the east, the hope of the soul While 'round us here, the dark billows roll Lead us from sin to glory afar Thou star of the east, thou sweet Bethlehem's star Oh, star that leads to God above Whose rays are peace and joy and love Watch o'er us still, 'til life hath ceased Beam on bright star, sweet Bethlehem star
