Star of God - 1942 - Eric Coates

James Pitt-Payne and Ian Cousins - 14 Dec 2001

Lord of the bygone centuries,
Thou once didst send a star
That led the feet of wand'ring men
To Bethlehem afar;
Lord of these wild and whirling years,
We need a star today
To guide us through this troubled world,
To point the only way.

Lord of our lives and destinies,
Oh, now fulfil Thy plan,
Bring in the golden years of peace,
The brotherhood of man!
By all the blood that men have shed,
By all the hearts that bow,
Oh, God of the Star of Bethlehem,
Be with the nations now,
By all the blood that men have shed,
By all the hearts that bow,
Oh God of the Star of Bethlehem,
Be with the nations now.
