There’s a Song in the Air

There’s a song in the air!

There’s a star in the sky!

There’s a mo­ther’s deep pray­er

And a ba­by’s low cry!

And the star rains its fire

While the beau­ti­ful sing

For the man­ger of Beth­le­hem

Cradles a king!

There’s a tu­mult of joy

O’er the won­der­ful birth

For the vir­gin’s sweet boy

Is the Lord of the earth.

Ay! the star rains its fire

While the beau­ti­ful sing

For the man­ger of Beth­le­hem

Cradles a king!

In the light of that star

Lie the ag­es im­pearled;

And that song from afar

Has swept ov­er the world.

Every hearth is aflame

And the beau­ti­ful sing

In the homes of the na­tions

That Je­sus is king!

We re­joice in the light

And we ec­ho the song

That comes down through the night

From the heav­en­ly throng.

Ay! we shout to the love­ly

Evangel they bring

And we greet in His cra­dle

Our Sav­ior and king!
