Little star of Bethlehem, perfect as a pearl
Waiting for our eyes to turn and our faith to unfurl
How I pray that You will cast Your light upon the world
Shine on flame of peace
Flame of hope, oh, help us believe
Those who wait with hungry hearts clinging to despair
Those whose souls are bound in chains, the lonely everywhere
Show them that we hear their cry, show them that we care
Shine on flame of peace
Flame of hope, oh, help us believe
From the west to the east
Shine on us, we shall be released
How I pray that You will cast Your light upon the world
Shine on, oh, shine on, shine on, shine
