This is my very favorite Christmas song, I believe. It is not well known and, to be honest, I never really took much notice of it until this year. It is a beautiful song with a lot of meaning. I found a lovely arrangement and hope you enjoy it!
Long years ago on a deep winter night,
High in the heavens a star shone bright,While in a manger a wee baby lay,
Sweetly asleep on a bed of hay.
Jesus the Lord was that baby so small,
Laid down to sleep in a humble stall;
Then came the star and it stood overhead,
Shedding its light 'round His little bed.
Dear baby Jesus, how tiny Thou art,
I'll make a place for Thee in my heart,
And when the stars in the heavens I see,
Ever and always I'd think of Thee.
Written by Simon and Garfunkle
