Star of Stars. SATB. (with flute obligato)
words and music by Elizabeth Sidebotham
Come Rejoice for
Christ was born on Christmas morn
and the oxen and ass were there
Christ was born on Christmas morn
and the oxen and ass were there
And the shepherds they came,
Leaving sheep on the plain,
Wise men were led by a star
Oh ! Star of stars you beam so brightly
Star of stars shine on our souls this Christmas time
Come Rejoice for
Christ was born on Christmas morn
And the angels sang their prayer
And Mary rocked her baby sweet,
whilst the ox and ass were there
whilst the ox and ass were there
As the ages unfold the tale is retold
About how Jesus Christ was made man
How the angel Gabriel sought the virgin
to be the mother of God
to be the mother of God
Star of stars you beam so brightly
Star of stars shine on our souls this Christmas time
Come Rejoice for
Christ was born on Christmas morn
and the oxen and ass were there
Shepherds had seen a heavenly host
Who told them the babe was not far,
The babe was in Bethlehem not far away
Oh ! Star of stars you beam so brightly
Star of stars shine on our souls this Christmas time
Star of stars,Star of stars,Star of stars
Shine down on us tonight
