O wondrous star of Bethlehem!
That in the heavens bright
Shone forth to guide the pilgrims� feet,
Unto the Prince of Light,
Shine on thro� endless ages,
While ringing thro� the sky;
His loyal ones still hear the song:
�Glory to God on high!�
Shine on, Bethlehem�s star,
Send thy light afar;
Tell of Jesus� birth
Till His glory fills the earth.
O bless�d star of Bethlehem!
Still gild with heav�nly ray
The pathway to the Holy One
Who comes to us today.
Gleam thro� the darksome shadows
That fill the heart with fear,
Till weary souls shall see the light,
Knowing that Christ is near.
Shine on, Bethlehem�s star,
Send thy light afar;
Tell of Jesus� birth
Till His glory fills the earth.
O wondrous star of Bethlehem!
Shine on; we too would bring
Our lives a willing sacrifice,
With gladness to the King.
With joy we travel onward,
Encircled by the glow�
The glory of the fadeless Star,
Jesus, Whose love we know.
Shine on, Bethlehem�s star,
Send thy light afar;
Tell of Jesus� birth
Till His glory fills the earth.
