The Day-Star hath ris­en, the night clouds have flown;
No long­er in sad­ness I wan­der alone;
Its beams in the val­ley re­flect­ed I see;
The Day-Star hath ris­en—it shin­eth for me.

Refrain

It shin­eth for me, shin­eth for me;
The Day-Star hath ris­en,
It shin­eth for me.

The Day-Star hath ris­en, in beau­ty sub­lime,
To cheer and il­lum­ine each far dist­ant clime;
The re­gions in dark­ness its beau­ty shall see;
The Day-Star hath ris­en—it shin­eth for me.

Refrain

The Day-Star hath ris­en, it shin­eth for all;
O’er paths that are lone­ly its bright­ness will fall;
O bless­èd Re­deem­er, all hon­or to Thee,
Thou Day-Star of glo­ry that shin­est for me!

Refrain
