O, winter night of wonder - night of promise long foretold

When angel voices filled the heavens high above

Announced the joy of the ages and His glory to behold

For into this world is born the wondrous Child of Love

O, star of hope that leads us to His manger

Shine your light upon the newborn King



For all who seek to find new life

Make a gift of your heart

And follow the star

To hear the song that heaven sings

Like the wise men of old

Come follow the star



They laid their gifts before Him on that night so long ago

Stood in His presence every pilgrim great and small

To worship at His manger is to kneel before His throne

Laying our burdens down the greatest gift of all

O, star divine that brings us to our Savior

Give the light of love to show us our way



In place of gold lay down your life

In place of frankincense and myrrh

Abandon all
