Beyond all other nights, on this strange Night,
A strangers’ star, a silent, seeking star,
Helps set the wreckage of our souls aright:
It leads us to a stable door ajar
And we are not alone in peeking in:
An ox, an ass, a lamb, some shepherds, too –
Bright star without; a brighter Light within
We children see the Truth three Wise Men
knew
For we are children there in Bethlehem
Soft-shivering in that winter long ago
We watch and listen there, in star-light dim,
In cold Judea, in a soft, soft snow
The Stable and the Star, yes, we believe:
Our mothers sing us there each Christmas Eve

For our Mothers on Christmas
Beyond all other nights, on this strange Night,
A strangers’ star, a silent, seeking star,
Helps set the wreckage of our souls aright:
It leads us to a stable door ajar
And we are not alone in peeking in:
An ox, an ass, a lamb, some shepherds, too –
Bright star without; a brighter Light within
We children see the Truth three Wise Men
knew
For we are children there in Bethlehem
Soft-shivering in that winter long ago
We watch and listen there, in star-light dim,
In cold Judea, in a soft, soft snow
The Stable and the Star, yes, we believe:
Our mothers sing us there each Christmas Eve
