Stars all bright are beaming
from the skies above,
nature's face all gleaming,
shines with heaven's own love.
Wake and sing, good Christians,
on this birthday morn,
heaven and earth are telling
God for man is born.
Here for us abiding,
cradled in a stall,
all his glory hiding,
see the Lord of all.
Wake and sing, good Christians,
on this birthday morn,
heaven and earth are telling
God for man is born.
Born that he might lead us
from this earthly home,
guide our way and feed us,
till the end shall come.
Wake and sing, good Christians,
on this birthday morn,
heaven and earth are telling
God for man is born.
Thousand thousand blessings
sing we for his love,
choral hymns addressing
to our Lord above.
Wake and sing, good Christians,
on this birthday morn,
heaven and earth are telling
God for man is born.
Glory in the highest,
for this wondrous birth;
choir of heaven! thou criest
peace to all the earth
Wake and sing, good Christians,
on this birthday morn,
heaven and earth are telling
God for man is born.
