Misc Christmas – What Star Is This (Guitar)

     C                  C
What star is this, with beams so bright,

     G               C    D    C
More lovely than the noon-day light?

     Am          Em      F        C
'Tis sent to an-nounce a new-born King,

Dm   G   C/G  G  C/G F/G G7  C
Glad tid-ings of our God to bring.

     C                  C
'Tis now fulfilled what God decreed,

      G             C    D   C
"From Jacob shall a star pro-ceed";

    Am      Em      F      C
And lo! the eastern sag-es stand

Dm  G   C/G   G    C/G F/G    G7  C
To read  in heaven the Lord's com-mand.

  C                C
O Jesus, while the star of grace

   G             C    D    C
Im-pels us on to seek your face,

    Am      Em        F         C
Let not our sloth-ful hearts re-fuse

Dm  G    C/G  G  C/G   F/G  G7 C
The guid-ance of your light to use.

   C            C
To God Creator, heav'nly light,

    G                   C     D  C
To  Christ, revealed in earth-ly night,

   Am      Em      F        C
To God the Spir-it blest we raise

Dm G   C/G   G   C/G F/G   G7   C
An end-less song of  thank-ful praise!
