Bright Morning Stars
Appalachian folk song; arr. Hunn
Bright morning stars are rising,
Bright morning stars are rising,
Bright morning stars are rising,
Day is a-breaking in my soul.
Oh, where are our dear mothers?
Oh, where are our dear mothers?
They're down in the valley, a-singing,
Day is a-breaking in my soul.
Oh, where are our dear fathers?
Oh, where are our dear fathers?
They've gone up to Heaven a-shouting!,
Day is a-breaking in my soul.
Bright morning stars are rising,
Bright morning stars are rising,
Bright morning stars are rising,
Day is a-breaking in my soul.
