lyrics

Verse I
Once in winter time,
A star rose high in the sky,
It shined both morning and night
And the little star, made the darkness take its flight
O'er Bethlehem it took rest.

Chorus

Tell me what it means,
I asked the shepherd boy,
He answered very softly,
Its God's promise of hope.

Verse II
High above the trees
A shepherd's voice filled the night,
He sang a song of Peace,
Carried by the wind, the melody rang clear and bright,
Go to Bethelehem it did sing.

Interlude


I travelled through the night,
not knowing where I was bound,
In search of a promise foretold,
At the journey's end it was a baby that I found,
Bringing hope that first Christmas day.

Repeat Chorus

At the journey's end it was a baby that I found,
Bringing hope that first Christmas day.
