Twinkle, twin­kle, Christ­mas star!
Who can tell me what you are?
Up above the world so high,
Like a dia­mond in the sky?

Refrain

Always show your bright, clear light;
Shine and spar­kle thro’ the night;
Twinkle, twin­kle, lit­tle star,
How I won­der what you are.

When the gold­en day is done,
And the night is just be­gun,
Then I’ll wait and watch for you,
As you twin­kle thro’ the blue.

Refrain

When the night grows dark and chill,
Then you shine more bright and still,
And your kind­ly watch you keep
While the lit­tle child­ren sleep.

Refrain

Little star, with you I’d shine,
To His praise who is di­vine;
Jesus is our glo­ri­ous king;
For Him child­ren love to sing.
