Bright Morning Star lyrics
Cara Dillon
Bright morning star a-rising
Bright morning star a-rising
Bright morning star a-rising
Day is breaking in my soul
They are down in the valley praying
They are down in the valley praying
They are down in the valley praying
Day is breaking in my soul
[Instrumental]
Oh where are our dear fathers?
Oh where are our dear fathers?
Oh where are our dear fathers?
Day is breaking in my soul
They have gone to heaven shouting
They have gone to heaven shouting
They have gone to heaven shouting
Day is breaking in my soul
Bright morning stars are rising
Bright morning stars are rising
Bright morning stars are rising
Day is breaking in my soul
