6. Beautiful Star, Shine On

1 On stormy seas I sail my bark,
Nor fear for once the billows dark;
For streaming from the skies afar
Shines out the bright, the morning star.

Refrain:
Shine on, shine on, shine on,
O beautiful, beautiful star;
Shine on, shine on, shone on,
O beautiful star.

2 When on the crested wave I’m borne,
Amid the tumult of the storm;
Or, when the sea is calm and still,
‘Tis by that light I read God’s will. [Chorus]

3 Beyond the main a joyous band
Is waiting on the shining strand,
To welcome to that peaceful shore
My little bark, its perils o’er. [Chorus]
