[Verse 1]
Long years ago on a deep winter night
High in the heavens a star shone bright
While in a 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 over head
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'll think of thee
