This month, I'm making a departure to post something by David C. Brown, a "blog acquaintance" from the U.K. He first posted it in July, 2016. The link to his blog is below.
Thou art the Star of the morning;
Thou art the Bright Morning Star;*
Saints, in the midst of man's scorning
Welcome Thy light from afar:
Star of the morning,
O what a source of delight!
Soon Thou wilt have Thine assembly
Shining with heavenly light.
Thou art the Star of the morning;
Thou art the Bright Morning Star;
Shining with heaven's adorning
Into the night where we are.
Star of the morning,
O what a source of delight!
Soon Thou wilt have Thine assembly
Shining with heavenly light. --David C. Brown, 2016
Sing it to the hymn "Showers of Blessing"

*Christ as the Morning Star from the Book of Revelation. (For more on this matter, see my posting, "Little Star, Might Star" from last month.)

Thanks for posting this. It's a good hymn.
Thanks. It was actually penned by a gentleman I met through blogging. You can find a bit of his reaction in the comments under my poem "Little Star, Mighty Star" from June, 2021.
