The Star of Bethlehem's Glow

Beneath the sky, where shepherds knelt,  

A humble story of love was felt.  

Not in splendor or kingly might,  

But in a manger, came the Light.  


Through silent fields, the angels sang,  

As heaven’s glory to earth it rang.  

“Glory to God, and peace to men,  

For Christ is born in Bethlehem!”  


A child so tender, yet divinely bold,  

The prophecies of ages foretold.  

A Savior to heal, to mend, to guide,  

A King whose love would never divide.  


The cross loomed near, the mission clear,  

To conquer death, dispel all fear.  

And yet, in swaddling cloth He lay,  

A babe who’d guide the world’s lost way.  


This is Christmas, the gospel’s call:  

God’s love incarnate, given to all.  

Let hearts arise, let praises ring,  

For Christ is born, the Savior King.
