Lyrics
Hook
The words of the prophets were the truth
The star is holy
I ssid, the words of the prophets were the truth
the star is holy
The star is holy. The star is holy.
I said, the words of the prophets were the truth
The star is holy.
Verse 1
We're going to Jerusalem
We've traveled very far
We're coming from the East and we are following His star.
We have come to worship Him
The Prince of Peace, The King
Isaiah said, " Messiah's born to save us all from sin."
Hook
Verse 2
King Herod met us secretly to find out what we know
What was the light up in the sky -
A prophecy foretold?
The star , It shone before us so we followed it all night
It shown right in to Bethlehem - this bright and holy light

The light in the night.. On a mother with a babe in her arms
A shining bright light.. And we kneel before Him right where we are
He's the light of the world.. He's the reason for the star in the sky
For unto us a child is born, to us a son is given!
