STARRY STARRY NIGHT
on a cold wintry night
sparks of his historical birth
warmth of innocence that night
touched every grain of desert sand
a saviour there lay at night
happy the word for his coming
silencing the winds of the night
into the light of a thousand stars
yet brighter shone in the night
his manger star a guiding light
