Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Ev'ryone come on

All over the earth
Other stars.

Let the shadows fall behind you
Don't look back, just carry on
And the shadows will never find you

attributed, Day's Collacon
And see--the Sun himself!--on wings
Of glory up the East he springs.
Angel of Light! who from the time
Those heavens began their march sublime,
Hath first of all the starry choir
Trod in his Maker's steps of fire!
