UNDER THE STARS
Under the stars, one holy night A little Babe was born; Over His head a star shone bright, And glistened till the morn. And wise men came from far away, And shepherds wandered where He lay Upon His lowly bed of hay,. Under the stars one night! Under the stars, one blessed night, The Child-Christ came to earth, And through the darkness broke the light Of morning at His birth. And sweet hosanna filled the air, And guardian angels watched Him where The Virgin Mother knelt in prayer, Under the stars one night. Under the stars, this happy night, We wait for Him once more, And seem to see the wondrous sight, The shepherds saw of yore. 0 Baby born in Bethlehem, Come to us as You came to them, And crown us with love's diadem, Under the stars to-night. — Sacred Heart Review.
