There’s a song in the air
There’s a star in the sky
There’s a mother’s deep prayer
And a baby’s low cry
And the star rains its fire
While the beautiful sing
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King

There’s a tumult of joy
O’er the wonderful birth
For the Virgin’s sweet boy
Is the Lord of the earth
And the star sends its fire
While the beautiful sing
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King

In the light of that star
Lies the ages impearled
And that song from afar
Has swept over the world
Every heart is aflame
And the beautiful sing
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King

There’s a song in the air
There’s a star in the sky
There’s a song in the air
There’s a star in the sky
