Advent Morning Star

The Morning Star arises in our hearts
When Advent comes and Christ our Lord draws near,
And He begins with dawn to each impart
His faith and courage to face every fear.

Apostles are for us His shining light
Who saw Him face-to-face when He arose
To leave in grave for us our sinful night,
And we in Him will find our new repose.

For our hearts in life’s storms will steady be
When rest in storms we always find in Him;
His “Peace, be still” will others in us see
And know that He desires the same for them.

His Morning Star will herald our new day
To show within us we can know His way.
