1 There's a star in the East on Christmas morn,
Rise up, shepherd, and follow.
It will lead to the place where the Christ was born,
Rise up, shepherd, and follow.
Refrain:
Follow, follow,
rise up, shepherd, and follow.
Follow the Star of Bethlehem,
Rise up, shepherd, and follow.
2 If you take good heed to the angel's words,
Rise up, shepherd, and follow.
You'll forget your flocks, you'll forget your herds,
Rise up, shepherd, and follow.
