Unknown - Every Star Shall Sing A Carol Lyrics

EVERY STAR SHALL SING A CAROL
(Sydney Carter)

Every star shall sing a carol
Every creature high and low,
Come and praise the King of Heaven
By whatever name you know.

cho: God above, man below
Holy is the name I know.

When the king of all creation
Had a cradle on the Earth,
Holy was the human body
And the day that gave him birth.

Who can tell how many crosses,
Still to come or long ago,
Crucify the king of heaven ?
Holy is the name I know.

Who can tell what other cradle
High above the Milky Way
Still may rock the king of heaven
On another Christmas Day ?

Every creature he will gather,
All shall know him for their own.
I will praise the son of Mary,
Brother of my blood and bone.

Every star and every planet,
Every creature high or low,
Sing the everlasting carol:
Holy is the name I know.
