“The Bright Christmas Star “- A NEW Children’s song – perfect for young singers.
Lyrics by Lindsey Tobin & Music by Monica Scott
“When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.” Matthew 2:10
“These lyrics were inspired by one Christmas that was filled with sickness and grief. The realization came that Christmas is simply about Jesus Christ; a Savior who came to earth to help us with such trials. He is the light in our darkness. God chose the brightest star in the sky to mark His Son’s birth. In an ever-darkening world we can share His light with others just like the star did on that sacred night.” – Lindsey Tobin

A silent night, a starlight sky
Mary sang a lullaby
Her baby boy was born that night
Shining like the star so bright
Shepherds ran to seek Him
Wisemen journeyed far
Angels sang His praises
Brightly shone the star
Guiding all to see Him
A light for every heart
A Savior born to lead us
like the bright Christmas Star

This was such a fun project and has been great to see how quickly it is catching on and being shared with so many people!
I used to sing this with my mom when I was a child. She would sing in harmony during the chorus, just like these sweet kids. Thanks for beautifying this song!
So wonderful to have an updated version the children will actually enjoy singing! Thank you for new idea
