The sun is rising in the east,
It gilds the heavens wide,
And scatters light on mountain crest,
On shore and countryside.
It rises from the valley bright,
Where paradise once lay,
And bringeth life and joy and light
To all upon its way.
It greets us from the land afar
Where man with grace was crowned,
And from that wondrous Morning Star
That eastern sages found.
And from the east God’s sun outpours
A heav’nly light on earth,
A glimpse from Eden’s sacred shores,
Where light and life had birth.
The starry hosts bow down before
The sun that passes them;
It seems so like that star of yore,
Which shone on Bethlehem.
Thou, Sun of suns, from Heaven come,
In Thee our praises rise
For every message from Thy home
And from Thy paradise.
