The Child and the Star


Little star that shines so bright, come and peep at me tonight,
For I often think of you in the pretty sky so blue.
Little Star! O tell me, pray, where you hide yourself all day?

Have you got a home like me, and a father kind to see?
Little Child, at you I peep, while you lie so fast asleep.
But when dawn begins to break, I my homeward journey take.
For I've many friends on high, living with me in the sky,
And a loving Father, too, Who commands what I'm to do.
