Christmas star

Lisa Nicklas 1962 (Kane pa)



There's a star up there
   I see everynight
It's a christmas star
  That shines so bright

And many people don't know
 Why it is there
But the christmas star
 Puts magic in the air

The magic of christmas
 The magic I see
In the little ones eyes
 Lights up the world to me

When we put the star
 Up on our tree
It's a symbol
 Of the star I see

The glory it brings
 In so many ways
That christmas star
 Shines so bright on christmas day

It's here to remind us
 What we must do
Like giving to those
 Who really need you

That christmas star
 Up in the sky
Is there to help us
 Remember why?

But the meaning of christmas
 Is so misunderstood
It's not the presents,or the lights,or even the food

It's the love of family
 The love of friends and such
That christmas star
 Gives us so much

Just remember that
 Christmas star up there
Is putting that christmas
 Magic in the air
