By Miriam Blaustein

Zionism

O STAR of Hope! O Blessed Star!

That riseth in the East afar,

Thou shed’st a wondrous, holy light,

A pillar of fire art thou by night.

Shine forth, thou great and lovely Star!

That riseth in the East afar,

A beacon-light of faith and cheer,

Be thou to Israel far and near.
