|
When God created the heaven and earth
|
He said let there be light
|
And a million shining stars appeared
|
On the canvas of the night
|
They all declared the glory
|
Of the Father up above
|
But only one startled the way
|
To His greatest gift of love
|
|
CHORUS
|
Bethlehem star¡¦How beautiful you are
|
Shining in the darkness
|
Guiding strangers from afar
|
As your light fills the heavens
|
His love fills my heart
|
So shine for me my¡¦Bethlehem star
|
|
From far away the wise men came
|
To find the tiny King
|
In Bethlehem they worshipped Him
|
And gave their offerings
|
Star up in the heavens
|
Without your holy light
|
They would still be searching
|
Somewhere in the night
|
|
CHORUS (repeat)
|
|
I may not be a wise man
|
And I don¡¯t have much to bring
|
But my heart is my gift of love
|
So lead me to the King
|
|
Bethlehem star¡¦How beautiful you are
|
Shining in the darkness
|
Guiding strangers from afar
|
As your light fills the heavens
|
His love fills my heart
|
So shine for me my¡¦Bethlehem star
|
Oh that I might worship Him
|
Shine for me¡¦Bethlehem star
|
