Star shines bright this Christmas night
The birds their watch are keeping
Moon hangs low on yonder hill
Children all are sleeping.

Christmas tree, O Christmas tree
Dreaming of the dawning
When sparrows flit and magpies sing
Their songs at Christmas morning.

Let us join the wise men three
And shepherds in that stable
And let’s give thanks for all we have
Around the Christmas table.

Star shines bright this Christmas night
The birds their watch are keeping
Moon hangs low on yonder hill
Children all are sleeping
Children all are sleeping.
