'Little Star'

Little star, little star, as you shine, as you shine
in the beautiful moonlit sky,
you are making us think of the dear little child
who came from the mansions on high.

Little star……little star….shining now as our carol we sing
Little star…little star…you are shining for Jesus your King

Little star, little star, were you shining that night
when the King in a manger lay?
Did you shine over Him as he slept in the stall.
His head on a pillow of hay?

Little star……little star….shining now as our carol we sing
Little star…little star…you are shining for Jesus your King
