Hail the Blest Morn (Southern Harmony)

"Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid." Star in the East (Southern Harmony 16) by Reginald Heber, 1811 Evensong at Saint James, Sunday, February 23, 2020 Joy and Wonder: Songs of Praise—European baroque masterpieces and early European and American hymnody help us consider our reliance on God, the goodness of offering our praise, and the joy that comes from living in God’s light. Reginald Heber's well-known Christmas text is almost universally arranged with the opening four lines of "hail the blest morn," an anonymous addition that emerges in the American shape-note tradition as verse 1. Heber's first verse then becomes the refrain, his other three verses rounding out the hymn as we so often find it today.

See the Great Mediator Down from the regions of glory descend! Shepherds, go worship the babe in the manger; Lo, for his guard the bright angels attend. Refrain Refrain Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid; Star in the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer was laid. Cold on his cradle the dewdrops are shining, Low lies his bed with the beasts of the stall; Angels adore him in slumber reclining, Wise men and shepherds before him do fall. Refrain Say, shall we yield him in costly devotion, Odors of Eden, and offerings divine, Gems from the mountain and pearls from the ocean, Myrrh from the forest and gold from the mine? Refrain 4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation, Vainly with gold would his favor secure; Richer by far is the heart’s adoration, Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. Refrain
