Beautiful Star of Bethlehem

                C               C7
Beautiful Star of Bethlehem
         F                     C
Shining afar through shadows dim
                   C           D7        G
Giving the light to those who long have gone
             C                 C7
Guiding the Wise Men on their way
          F                 C 
Unto the place where Jesus lay
           C            D7          G      C,F,C 
Beautiful Star of Bethlehem,      shine   on

Chorus:
             C                   G       C
Oh Beautiful Star  (Beautiful, Beautiful Star)         
      C        C   G   C
Of Bethlehem (Star of Bethlehem)
           C              D7    G
Shine upon us until the glory dawns
             C                  C7
Give us the light to light the way
          F                C
Unto the land of perfect day
            C            D7         G       C,F,C
Beautiful Star of Bethlehem,      shine    on


          C                  C7
Beautiful Star the hope of light
             F                    C
Guiding the pilgrims through the night
               C              D7        G 
Over the mountains 'til the break  of dawn
           C                C7
Into the light of perfect day
               F            C
It will give out a lovely ray
           C              D7        G    C,F,C 
Beautiful Star of Bethlehem,     shine   on



          C                  C7
Beautiful Star the hope of rest
                F                    C
For the redeemed, the good and the blessed
           C                D7     G
Yonder in glory when the crown is won
             C             C7
Jesus is now that star divine
             F                 C
Brighter and brighter He will shine
          C             D7     G    C,F,C
Beautiful Star of Bethlehem, shine on
