Brightest and best of the sons a of the morning

Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid

Star of the East, the horizon adorning

Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid

Cold on His cradle the dewdrops are shining

Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall

Angels adore Him in slumber reclining

Maker and Monarch and Savior of all

Say, shall we yield Him, in costly devotion

Odors of Edom and offerings divine?

Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean

Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine?

Vainly we offer each ample oblation

Vainly with gifts would His favor secure

Richer by far is the heart’s adoration

Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor

Brightest and best of the sons a of the morning

Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid

Star of the East, the horizon adorning

Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid
