A Star....

.....A star shone out so very bright,

Not just a little, simple one,

But one so special in our sight,

A new life had begun.

 

A star shone out so very clear,

Hung way up in a cloudless sky,

Over a stable, where a dear

Babe, heard a lullaby.

 

A star shone out so very bold,

Showing where this child was laid,

With a halo of the purist gold

Around his head, displayed.

 

A star shone out so very fine,

Leading us all to worship him,

One small human, pure and divine,

Our cup's full to the brim.

 

A star shone out so very great,

Beaming down on that Christmas birth,

And bands of angels did cantillate,

Praising God across our earth.
