Thread Name: Lyr/Tune Req: Beautiful Stars (from Isaac Freeman)
Subject: Lyr ADD: Beautiful Stars
Isaac Freeman's title cut on his new CD "BEAUTIFUL STARS" is just gorgeous. I have been all through my hymnal collection and numerous online searches, and I can't find any trace of it.... he learned it at his mother's side, as a child, singing with her in church.

SOUND CLIP

Here is the verse and chorus he sings (minus what I think are additional exclamations):

Beautiful stars of love,
Shining from heaven above,
Leading the world to look that way.
Radiant is the glow over the earth below,
Cheering me on to perfect day.

REFRAIN:
Stars of wondrous love,
Shining from above.
Filling the earth with light,
Scattering gloom at night.
Beautiful stars of wondrous love.

It must have originally had additional verses... I've drafted a couple myself but I'd rather have the real ones. Anyone have any information on this one?
