LYRICS

Under the stars one night a babe was born,
Angels sang ‘gloria’ to welcome him.
Cold was the night, but warm the cradle
of Mary’s heart’s desire.
Under the stars one night in Bethlehem.

Nascitur in stabulo,
Qui creavit caelum.
Rex qui regit saeculum,
lully, lulu lo.

Shepherds and wise men came to worship Him.

Simple and rich the gifts they brought to Him.

Wandering beasts, adoring, knelt to the baby, King of Kings,

Under the stars one night in Bethlehem.

Inter animalia,

lully, lulu lo.

Jacund mundi

lully, lully, lo,

Under the stars one night a babe was born,
Angels sang ‘gloria’ to welcome him.
Cold was the night, but warm the cradle
of Mary’s heart’s desire.
Under the stars one night in Bethlehem.
