I saw the
star on that
most holy night
I saw three wisemen
with gifts and they
followed this wondrous sight
My heart sang for
joy and my soul
knew I must also see
I knew not where
I was going
but the star guided me
I went with the
the wisemen
who welcomed me with love
When we came closer
to the star
I heard angels sing from above
The light became brighter
and had to
close my eyes
When I opened them
there was a simple
manger - a baby's size
My heart and soul
could not hold
the joy
Right before me
was a most
blessed boy
Who is this child?
Why do my heart
and soul sing?
Who is his mother
who smiles and
such love she brings
His father seems
overwhelmed by the
birth of his son
Am I really here?
The wisemen bring
their gifts,but I have only one
I kneel before
the manger with
humility and joy
Then I reach
my hands to
this most holy boy
Will you accept my heart
This is all
I have to give
I have no gifts
of gold but I
have faith I want to live
The tiny child
lifts his hands
as if he holds my heart with care
Mary gently puts
her hand on my shoulder
and a hug we share
The wisemen sing
The angels
join the song
As we sing
I feel incredible
joy and know I belong
Singing of new birth
New hope!
Life will never be the same
Many will honor him
and speak and sing
of his holy name
But my song
is not to be
sung only on this holy night
I lean toward Jesus
and he puts his tiny
hand on my heart
A most powerful
fire begins to
burn within never to depart
I know this fire
of love and faith
is to be shared
This night is to
light the way for
so all are aware
Alleluia Alleluia!
Jesus is with us!
Eternal love for all!
Amen
