A star in the East leading Wise Men to Him He and His mother bringing gifts to them A sign telling all the Christ Child is born On this first Christmas morn Shepherds lay trembling from fear some were fleeing The East sky ablaze what could they be seeing They heard of a Savior soon to be born Had he come on this first Christmas morn Could this be the day a new world begins Can this tiny child walk through life free from sin Has mankind been blest with a port from all storms On this first Christmas morn These things came to pass as we now all know May these thoughts be planted in our minds to grow Let's not forget why He wore a crown of thorns On this next Christmas morn
