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
