Lyrics
-
1. There was starlight on the hillside,And one star bent very lowTill it passed above a stableOn that night so long ago.
-
2. There were shepherds on the hillsideOn that night in Bethlehem.Heav'nly hosts appeared, proclaimingJoyous tidings unto them.
-
3. There was Jesus in the manger,Born that night in Bethlehem.And the shepherds left the hillside,And they came to worship him.
