I heard a really amazingly pretty Christmas song called Star of Bethlehem. (Dad sang in a quartet and they sang this song) I would like to share it with you, so here are some of the words:
The night was long,
we traveled far,
at times I looked but could not see the star,
But still it shone,
unveiling then,
the way to Bethlehem.
My heart held fear,
'mid puzzled joy,
for I was only a small shepherd boy,
and on a hillside,
soft and green,
I heard an angel sing!
I saw the midnight sky aflame with
radiant angels bathed in light,
holy light,
Saying Christ was born and beckoning
to find him,
go and find him!
A sweeter face
I ne'er will see,
than that of shining eyes,
smiling up at me,
I found a king,
I found a friend,
that night in Bethlehem!
That Christmas night,
so long ago,
has filled my life with light because I know,
that he lives now,
as he did then,
a king in Bethlehem,
whos love never ends,
shine for me again,
star of Bethlehem. . .
I've heard that song before! I agree, the words are beautiful...thanks for sharing them.
