The Bright and Morning Star

The Bright and Morning Star

Music and lyrics by John Jones and Julian Cartwright
Lyrics also adapted from the King James Bible: Matthew 2; Revelation 2, 22; John 11; Isaiah 60

Wise ones came from Jerusalem,
Having seen in the east a star
Which went before them till it came and stood
Over where the young child was
When they saw the child with its mother
They rejoiced and knew that it could be no other, than

The bright and morning star
Who shines from Heaven
If ye believeth
In the bright and morning star
They that overcometh
Shall have the power
Of the bright and morning star

The wise ones opened their treasures
Gold, frankincense and myrrh proved their love
And though they traveled far through the night
They knew that every perfect gift is from above, like
The bright and morning star
Who shines from Heaven
If ye believeth
In the bright and morning star
They that overcometh
Shall have the power
Of the bright and morning star

The bright and morning star
It shineth from afar
It shines in darkness
But the darkness cannot comprehend it

Shine, for thy light is come
And the glory of love, has risen on thee
From the bright and morning star
They that overcometh
Have the power
Of the bright and morning star
The bright and morning star
