Revelation 2:28: Jesus, Thou art that Morning-star
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 13 (1872)
Jesus, Thou art that Morning-star!
Thy brightness in my heart declare,
To me Thine only glory show,
Thine only Self on me bestow,
I want no other light to see,
No other stars or sun but Thee.
Who walk enlighten'd by Thy light
Their morn hath no succeeding night,
They by reflected lustre shine,
And bright in majesty Divine,
Admire with all those stars above,
The Light of life, the God of love.
