Lyrics sample

Jesus is our gift from God born on Christmas Day.

Born in a lowly stable, the ancient story says.

In the night there blazed a light over where He lay,

A signpost in the heavens that shone as clear as day.

If you don’t know the way to go

Look in the sky and see the glow.

If you don’t know the way

Follow the star!

If you feel lost at Christmas time,

If you feel sad and low sometimes,

Follow the light, follow the shining star!
