"...Why did I walk through crowds of fellow-beings with my eyes turned down, and never raise them to that blessed Star which led the Wise Men to a poor abode?
Were there no poor homes to which its light would have conducted me?"
From "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens, Stave One.
High
above the weary world, amid the stars of heaven
To
men of old a wondrous sign of peace and hope was given
A
brighter star was kindled there, to reign among the skies
To
mark the way to Bethlehem and everlasting light
And high above the weary world, for eyes to see that will
The
star of Bethlehem will shine for those who seek him still
High
above the weary world it shone upon their road
And
thus it led the wise men on, to seek a poor abode
And
is there now no humble home to which its light may lead?
No
quiet need? No tears of grief? No hungering soul to feed?
Look
high above the weary world -- for eyes to see that will,
The
star of Bethlehem will shine for those who seek him still
High
above the weary world his star still shines for me
It
bids me seek the Holy Child, adoring on bended knee
It
beckons me through ages past, by countless years undimmed
It
bids me serve his children now, thus to worship him
And
high above the weary world, for eyes to see that will
The
star of Bethlehem will shine for those who seek him still.
