I see a star and it's softly shining On the hillside so quiet and bright, Star of wonder! Star of my childhood, In all my lifetime the one clear light And when the way is dark, my heart is like a stone, It's calling me to find the way back home Oh I will follow my guiding star! You bring me light, shine on me tonight! Follow my guiding star and for all time Forever shine for all mankind! Oh! Show us the way back home! I see a star, star of the morning over every country, over every land, Star of freedom, star of a new birth For every woman, every child and man And as the candles all light up and the sun starts to glow I can see a new road shining and it's Time for us to go.
