Religious Music - Bright Was the Guiding Star lyrics

Bright was the guiding star that led

With mild, benignant ray

The Gentiles to the lowly shed

Where the Redeemer lay.

But lo! a brighter, clearer, light

Now points to His abode

It shines, through sin and sorrow's night

To guide us to our God.

Oh! haste to follow where it leads

The gracious call obey

Be rugged wilds, or flowery meads

The Christian's destined way.

Oh! gladly tread the narrow path

While light and grace are given

Who meekly follow Christ on earth

Shall reign with Him in Heaven...
