[Verse 1]
Long years ago on a deep winter night
High in the heavens a star shone bright
While in the manger a wee baby lay
Sweetly asleep on a bed of hay

[Verse 2]
Jesus our Lord was that baby so small
Lay down to sleep in a humble stall
Then came the star and it stood overhead
Shedding its light 'round his little head

[Verse 3]
Dear baby Jesus, how tiny Thou art
I'll make a place for Thee in my heart
And when the stars in the heavens I see
Ever and always I'd think of Thee
