A star in the East leading Wise Men to Him
He and His mother bringing gifts to them
A sign telling all the Christ Child is born
On this first Christmas morn

Shepherds lay trembling from fear some were fleeing
The East sky ablaze what could they be seeing
They heard of a Savior soon to be born
Had he come on this first Christmas morn

Could this be the day a new world begins
Can this tiny child walk through life free from sin
Has mankind been blest with a port from all storms
On this first Christmas morn

These things came to pass as we now all know
May these thoughts be planted in our minds to grow
Let's not forget why He wore a crown of thorns
On this next Christmas morn
