1
The bright star was shining from heaven that night,
A guide for the wise men who followed the light,
The angels were singing on day’s early morn
Hosanna, hosanna, The Saviour is born.

Chorus
While Mary and Joseph, their own vigil keep
And far away shepherds are watching their sheep,
Now how can we praise God in some little way,
Let’s call at the Manger and thank Him today.

2
The lowly animals gathered ‘round the Manger in awe,
Eyes glistening with love for the Babe in the straw,
And trumpets from heaven blew with strains of great joy
To herald the birth of This One Baby Boy.

Chorus
While Mary and Joseph, their own vigil keep
And far away shepherds are watching their sheep,
Now how can we praise God in some little way,
Let’s call at the Manger and thank Him today.

3
The bells they are ringing a joyous refrain,
To welcome the Birthday of Christ once again,
In mystical silence the stars shine above,
Hosanna, Hosanna. The nine days of love.

Chorus
While Mary and Joseph, their own vigil keep
And far away shepherds are watching their sheep,
Now how can we praise God in some little way,
Let’s call at the Manger and thank Him today.
