Lyrics
There was a (Am7)star in the (G)East ern sky shown (F)down on Beth (Am7)le hem.
A few had (Am7)rec og nized the sign
a (F)King was born to them.
It drew them to a man ger
to a (F)Vir gin Moth er’s Son
who would (F)draw us to sal va tion,
God’s (F5)gift to ev ’ry one.
And the (C)star still (C)shines af ter (F)all this time
as a (F)light for (C)me and you.
It (C)beck ons (C)us to seek Him.
(Am)Wise men still do,
(Am)wise men still do.
In these (Am7)cra zy, trou (G)bled times,
the world (F)seems so out of tune.
Some (F)times it’s like we’re liv
ing with out a (F)flame to light the room.
If you’re (Am)feel ing faith
less and you (F)think you’ve lost your way,
oh, there (F)is a hope that’s bright e nough
to (F)turn your night to day.
And the (C)star still (C)shines af ter (F)all this time as a (F)light for me and you.
It (C)beck ons (C)us to seek
Him.
(Am)Wise men still (C)do,
(Am)wise men still do.
It won’t (F)go out af ter Christ
mas like a (Dm7)can dle in the wind.
It’s a (F)light that shines for ev
er, not just ev ’ry now and (Gsus)then.
The (C)star still (C)shines af ter (F)all this time as a (F)light for me and you.
It (C)beck ons (C)us to seek
Him.
(Am)Wise men still do,
whoa, (Am)wise men still (C)do,
(Am)wise men still do.
The (G)star still (F)shines.
The (G)star still (F)shines.
