The Stars Look Down (a Christmas Carol)

Moderato.
The Stars look down
On David’s town,
While angels sing in Winter night;
The shepherds pray,
And far away,
The Wise Men follow Guiding light.
Little Christ Child,
By Mary Mild,
In manger lies without the inn;
Of Man the Son,
Yet God in One,
To save the lost in
world of sin.
Still stars look down
on David’s town
And still the Christ Child dwells with men.
What thought give we
To such as He,
Or souls who live in Sin, as then?
Show we our love
To Him above
By off’ring others’ grief to share,
And Christmas cheer
For all the year
Bestow to lighten Pain and Care.]
