Lyrics Brightest And Best - Ricky Skaggs , Keith & Kristyn Getty

Hail blessed morn, see the great Mediator
Down from the regions of glory descend
Shepherds, go worship the babe in a manger
Lo, for a guard, the bright angels attend

Say, "Shall we yield Him in costly devotion
Fragrance of Edom and offerings divine
Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean
Myrrh from the forest or gold from the mine?"

Brightest and best of sons of the morning
Dawn on our darkness and lend us Thine aid
Star in the East, the horizon adorning
Guide where our infant Redeemer was laid

Vainly, we offer each ample oblation
Vainly with gifts would His favor secure
Richer by far is the heart's adoration
Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor

Brightest and best of sons of the morning
Dawn on our darkness and lend us Thine aid
Star in the East, the horizon adorning
Guide where our infant Redeemer was laid

Cold on His cradle, the dewdrops were shining
Low lies His bed with the beasts of the stall
Angels adore Him in slumbers reclining
Wise men and shepherds before Him do fall
Wise men and shepherds before Him do fall

Brightest and best of sons of the morning
Dawn on our darkness and lend us Thine aid
Star in the East, the horizon adorning
Guide where our infant Redeemer was laid

Brightest and best of sons of the morning
Dawn on our darkness and lend us Thine aid
Star in the East, the horizon adorning
Guide where our infant Redeemer was laid

Guide where our infant Redeemer was laid
