O Shining Star

Christmas Song

Background Scripture:

• ... For we saw His star in the east, and we have come to worship Him.
Matthew 2:2
• ... The people who were sitting in the darkness saw a great light, and those who were sitting in the land and shadow of death, upon them a light dawned.
Matthew 4:16

Lyrics:

O shining star, do shine upon us
We went astray, we went too far
Show us the way, we are in darkness
And lead us to the Morning Star

O shining star, do shine upon us
And lead us to the Son of God
Who came to be a man of sorrow
To bring us joy, and make us glad

O shining star, do shine upon us
Show us the Babe, the gentle light
Who came to fight the power of darkness
And, through the cross, to win the fight

O shining star, do shine upon us
Show us the way to Bethlehem
That leads to our eternal dwelling
Up in the New Jerusalem

What a blessing words and nice music. May the Lord keep using you to glorify his name.

[bafeiche]

Thanks for the encouragement. To glorify His name is all what's about. May He help us to always concentrate on this and forget about ourselves.
