Verse 1
I saw everything that happened on that starlit night
I saw everything as I was shining bright
Mary gave birth to a baby boy just as the angel said
Jesus Christ was born on that night
Chorus
And as night turned into morning
Great rejoicing filled the sky
As I twinkled brightly in the night
And today a star is shining on your Christmas tree
To remind the world of that amazing night
Verse 2
I saw shepherds on the hillside on that starlit night
When the glory of the Lord shone all around
Then an angel said "Don't be afraid,
I bring good news to you
Peace on earth and joy to all mankind"
Verse 3
I saw everything that happened on that starlit night
Wise men travelling onward many days and nights
And I slowly guided them all the way to Bethlehem
By the glistening glow of my light
