'Twas a starlight, shining starlight
On a very special morn
'Twas a starlight, shining so bright
Shining where the child was born
'Twas a starlight, shining starlight
Shining peace and hope to men
'Twas a starlight, shining so bright
Saying, "this is where life begins"
Throughout the darkness of night
There the light will always be
From the place where Jesus Christ was born
To the heart of you and me
'Twas a starlight, shining starlight
Born for all the world to see
Now this starlight, shining so bright
Still it shines for you and me
'Twas a starlight, shining starlight
