The star of Bethlehem

M. Lang

When Jesus Christ, a little child

in Bethlehem, was born,

There shone a star across the wild

more glorious than the morn.

It glow'd and gleam'd it blazed and beam'd

Above the lonely hill;

Ah, blessed star of Bethlehem,

It lights the nations still

Ah, star of Bethlehem.

When Jesus Christ, a little child

in Bethlehem, was born,

Ah, blessed star of Bethlehem.
