Star Of The Morning

(album: Sailin' - 1984)

All of creation sing, star of the morning
Praise to the risen King, star of the morning
I lift my hands to thee, star of the morning
Praises to the risen King, he is the star of the morning

People shouted, "Here comes the King!"
As you marched down the road to Jerusalem
There were tears all in your eyes,
The same ones who cheered, they yelled, "Crucify!"

I lift my hands to thee, Star of the Morning
You gave your life just for me, Star of the Morning, Hallelujah

When they nailed you to a tree
They thought, they had won a mighty victory
Not even death could hold you down
On the third day you rose from the ground

Hallelujah, thank you, Jesus
Hallelujah, my soul sings Hallelujah

One day soon we'll look on high
And the angels of God, they gonna light up the sky
What a day that's going to be
When Jesus our Lord comes back for you and me

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I lift my hands to Thee, Star of the Morning
Praise to the risen King, Star of the Morning
You are my alpha and my omega, Jesus
You are star of the morning
You are my beginning and my ending
You are my star of the morning
You are the lily of the valley, star of the morning
Jesus, you are the and the bright and morning star, hallelujah
Star of the morning
You're water in dry places, you're star of the morning
You're mother for the motherless, Jesus, you're star of the morning
You're star of the morning
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, you're star in my life
Jesus, you're star of the morning
