Star of Bethlehem Songtext
von John Williams

Star of Bethlehem shining bright
Bathing the world in heav′nly light,
Let the glow of your distant glory
Fill us with hope this Christmas night.

Star of innocence, star of goodness
Gazing out since time began,
You who've lived through endless ages
View with love the age of man.


Star of beauty hear our plea,
Whisper your wisdom tenderly.
Star of Bethlehem set us free
Make us a world we long to see.

Star of Bethlehem, star up high,
Miracle of the midnight sky,
Let your luminous life of heaven
Better our hearts and make us fly.

Star of happiness, star of wonder
You see everything from afar,
Cast your eye upon the future
Make us wiser than we are.


Star of gentleness, hear our plea,
Whisper your wisdom tenderly.
Star of Bethlehem set us free
Make us a world we long to see.
