Shining Light
At Christmas time in Bethlehem
So many years ago
God sent a light to shine day and night
And guide us, this we know.
Every year at this special time
In a winter deep and cold
We celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ
And His story is told.
This light will help us all our days
In good times and in bad
From the day we are born till the day we die
Through all the troubles we've had.
Light, love, and life, a beacon
Of hope to pull us through
We need someone to guide us
In everything we do.
At Christmas time in Bethlehem
Nearly two thousand years today
God gave us a baby boy named Jesus
To guide us on our way.
