Lyrics
Lovely is the dark blue sky
Beautiful to every eye
Where the golden stars are blinking
See them smiling , see them winking
Beck’ning us to Heav’n on high
On the earliest Christmas night
All the stars were shining bright
When among them burst in brilliance
One lone star whose streaming radiance
Far surpassed the sun’s own light
Wise men from the East afar
Led to Jesus by the star
There adoring Heav’n’s elected
Found within His eyes reflected
God’s great Light and Love and Pow’r
