There is a star that shines tonight for all the world to see So far away my lover is, please bring him home to me The world is weary and unrest to settle on us all Tonight my Christmas wish will be for all to heath the call Peace on Earth and in our hearts That love ring out, ring near and far And lift the weary and the weak Keep you near this Christmas Eve There is a star that shines tonight Once the angel did appear to say be not afraid But the angels watching over you is the prayer that I will pray And as we gather around the tree and sing those Christmas songs Will hear your voice above the fray until you're safely home Peace on Earth and in our hearts That love ring out, ring near and far And lift the weary and the weak Keep you near this Christmas Eve There is a star that shines for you and me And while we wait for freedoms bells to ring throughout the world The Christmas wish remains the same of every boy and girl That when that glorious sun does rise and melt away their fears That you'll be home this time to stay and waiting by the tree Peace on Earth and in our hearts That love ring out, ring near and far Oh, and lift the weary and the weak Keep you near this Christmas Eve There is a star, oh there is a star that shines for you and me.
