A Star shines brightly high
|
To tell a King is nigh,
|
But Mary holds a baby,
|
No sound he makes, no cry.
|
She lays him in a manger,
|
This night he first is born,
|
To keep him safe from danger,
|
All on a Christmas morn.
|
|
She lullabyes so soft, so low,
|
She sees the crown and the thorn
|
She sings of how she loves him so,
|
But still her heart is torn, forlorn,
|
All on a Christmas morn.
|
|
And while your babe is asleep,
|
Why, Mary do you weep?
|
His path you see to Calvary.
|
You see his wounds so deep:
|
You shoulder now his Cross,
|
This night he first is born,
|
You gave him birth to die for us,
|
All on a Christmas morn.
|
|
She lullabyes so soft, so low,
|
She sees the crown and the thorn
|
She sings of how she loves him so,
|
But still her heart is torn...
|
|
She lullabyes so soft, so low,
|
She sees the crown and the thorn
|
She sings of how she loves him so,
|
But still her heart is torn, forlorn,
|
All on a Christmas morn...
|
|
All on a Christmas morn.
