::::''1.'' :High above the weary world, amid the stars of heaven :To men of old a wondrous sign of peace and hope was given :A brighter star was kindled there, to reign among the skies :To mark the way to Bethlehem and everlasting light :And high above the weary world, for eyes to see that will :The star of Bethlehem will shine for those who seek him still ::::''2.'' :High above the weary world it shone upon their road :And thus it led the wise men on, to seek a poor abode :And is there now no humble home to which its light may lead? :No quiet need? No tears of grief? No hungering soul to feed? :Look high above the weary world -- for eyes to see that will, :The star of Bethlehem will shine for those who seek him still ::::''3.'' :High above the weary world his star still shines for me :It bids me seek the Holy Child, adoring on bended knee :It beckons me through ages past, by countless years undimmed :It bids me serve his children now, thus to worship him :And high above the weary world, for eyes to see that will :The star of Bethlehem will shine for those who seek him still.
