1 In the sky the stars are shining,
Bright and fair, bright and fair;
On a manger bed reclining,
See the world’s Redeemer there.
Refrain:
Hear the bells of Heaven ringing,
Hear the hosts of angels singing;
Joyful news to earth they’re bringing,
Of a Savior born;
O’er the hills the dawn is creeping,
While the angels watch are keeping,
O’er the Savior who is sleeping,
On this holy morn.
2 Kneel before the King of glory,
On this morn, happy morn;
Then repeat to all the story,
Of a wondrous Savior born. [Refrain]
3 Unto Him who brings salvation,
We will sing, ever sing;
Bear the news to every nation,
Jesus is our Lord and king. [Refrain]
