1.
The promise of the Father to His
people in despair;
There would
come a Savior in answer
to their prayers.
Through
poet bards and prophets,
down from His throne above;
The word of
hope was given, bound
up in cords of love.
Chorus:
Look up! Look up! A star
is shining,
There in
the eastern sky.
Look up!
Look up! A star is shining,
For all the
world to see.
2.
Through tests of time they labored
with hope to drive them on;
Still
clinging to the promise, the
special Child would come.
When time
had reached its fulness,
God sent His only Son;
Wrapped up
in grace and mercy, He
was the promised One!
3.
The wise men in their musings
were first to see the star;
Such men
who seek the Savior would
travel very far.
It led them
to Judea, the town of
Bethlehem;
There they
would find the Baby,
the King, the Great I AM.
