Shine over sea and land, star in the distance,
Born by the Lord’s command for man’s assistance
Bethlehem’s Star whose rays
Lead where our Savior stays.
Shepherds behold the sight
In the midwinter night
Of that deep guiding light
Star shining clear and bright.
Night over Bethlehem, night over Zion;
Over in Western rim sets the Orion.
Shepherds that watch their sheep;
Child in a dreamless sleep –
Wakes with a glorious
Chorus of voices
God’s host victorious
With us rejoices.
