Though the Savior would be born far away in Bethlehem, believers in the Americas watched for the promised sign of His coming, trusting that God would fulfill His word.
For the faithful Nephites and Lamanites who believed the words of the prophets, the years before Jesus Christ’s birth were marked by waiting — watching the heavens in hope while enduring uncertainty, opposition and fear.
That moment of anticipation — experienced not in Bethlehem but half a world away — forms the spiritual foundation of “Star Bright,” a hymn added to "Hymns — For Home and Church."
