THE STAR STILL SHINES

Sonny James - 1966


If dark clouds cover your Christmas sky
If the world around you should seem unkind
Don't for a single moment let your strong faith die
Always believe the Star still shines

And if you would weaken and turn aside
From the path that seems much too high to climb
Recall a tiny baby with more love than pride
Always believe the Star still shines

The Star still shines, which will lead us home
The angels sing, you're never, never alone

And when children hunger out in the cold
With their tiny hands seeking love to find
And when fools only worship altars of gold
Always believe the Star still shines
Always believe the Star still shines
