1 Over a city shineth at night
Marvelous whiteness, wondrously bright!
Never such starlight glittered before—
See how it hovers over yon door!
Refrain:
Star of fulfillment! Beautiful star!
Lighting the manger, seen from afar;
Beacon from Heaven, sign of the King,
Light out of darkness, earthward you bring.
2 Not o’er a palace shineth this light;
Not o’er a temple, fair to the sight.
No, this bright beacon shineth so fair,
Over a stable—low in the air. [Refrain]
3 Over a stable? how can it be!
Go with the shepherds; hasten and see!
Enter the stable, bend and adore
Jesus the Infant—King evermore! [Refrain]
