Shine down star of Bethlehem
Shine on us as you did back then
Shine your light through all the world.
Shine so we all may see.
Its the Advent before Christmas
When the little child was born
You can almost hear the angels sing
To proclaim that joyful morn
And the star above shown bright
To lead the shepherds on their way
So they could make it there that night
To the place where Jesus lay
Chorus:
Through this old church doorway
Families join together
To celebrate his birth so long ago
That same star
Still shines for us tonight
To spread peace and joy
To those who care
Enough to see its light
Verse
2:
In the morning light of Christmas,
The children wake with joy
Before they open all their presents
Say a prayer to the baby boy
We should all try to remember
That his birthday is today
You can almost see the baby
In the manger where he lay
Chorus:
Through this old church doorway
Families join together
To celebrate his birth so long ago
That same star
Still shines for us tonight
To spread peace and joy
To those who care
Enough to see its light
Bridge:
Alleluia, Alleluia, Sing Praises to the Lord
Join together as one voice to proclaim throughout the world,
The songs that tell the story, of the baby boy
Some fill our eyes with tears, while they fill our hearts
with joy
Chorus:
Through this old church doorway
Families join together
To celebrate his birth so long ago
That same star
Still shines for us tonight
To spread peace and joy
To those who care
Enough to see its light
To spread Peace and Joy
to those who care
enough to see its light.
