Lyrics from Deseret Sunday School Songs, 1909

1. Stars of morning, shout for joy!
Sing redemption's mystery;
Holy, holy, holy, cry;
Holy, holy, holy, cry,
And praise the Lamb.

2. Ethiopia, stretch thy hand!
Come, ye tribes of ev'ry land,
Countless as the ocean's sand!
Countless as the ocean's sand!
To praise the Lamb.

3. Savior, let Thy kingdom come,
Now the man of sin consume,
Bring the blest millennium,
Bring the blest millennium,
Exalted Lamb.

Lyrics from A Collection of Sacred Hymns for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Europe, 1840

Hymn 256
7 7 7 4
1. Stars of morning, shout for joy,
Sing redemption's mystery,
Holy, Holy, Holy, cry,
And praise the Lamb.

2. Ethiopia, stretch thy hand;
Come ye tribes of ev'ry land,
Countless as the ocean's sand,
To praise the Lamb.

3. Bend thy bow and come, good Lord;
Send thy Spirit with thy word;
Now revive thy work, O Lord,
Thou bleeding Lamb.

4. My believing spirit fill -
Faith demands, it is thy will -
All things now are possible;
It shall be done.

5. Thus may we each moment feel,
Love him, serve him, praise him still,
Till we meet on Zion's hill,
To praise the Lamb.

6. Saviour, let thy kingdom come;
Now the Man of Sin consume;
Bring the blest millennium,
Exalted Lamb.
