A chill night has wrapped its arms
Around this hemisphere
And I am cold
A change in the weather
A storm on the way
Moving slow

An ill wind is rattling
The windows and the doors
Of the soul
The world keeps on turning
But nobody knows
Where it goes

I lift my eyes to the heavens
I’m reaching for a star
Morning Star
Hope of a new day
After the rain

The Daystar came sparkling
Like a diamond
In the dark velvet night
Until the dawn breaks
So, let it rise in our hearts

I lift my eyes to the heavens
I’m reaching for a star
I lift up my song in the night I will
wake up the dawn

A chill night has wrapped its arms
Around this hemisphere
But I believe
The darkness is deepest
Just before dawn
Appears

I lift my eyes to the heavens
I’m reaching for a star
I lift up my song in the night I will
wake up the dawn

Star of morning hurry the day
When tears and sorrow
Are no more
Star of morning hurry the day
When tears and sorrows
Are forgotten
Star of morning hurry the day
When tears and sorrows
Are beautified, beautified
Star of morning hurry the day
When tears and sorrows
Vanish away
