Fr. Bill’s CD Lyrics
Blanket of Stars: Blanket of Stars
Blanket of Stars . . .
Wrap the whole world this Christmas
Surround us, near and far
In God’s woven blanket of stars!
Comfort all in need of healing
Swaddle them with hope
Tuck us gently into bed with peace
Cover fear and hatred
Like the night of Jesus’ birth
Sleep safe under a Blanket of Stars…
Blanket of Stars
Did you shine that first Christmas
When the brightest one by far
Led the shepherds and kings?
Cradle us in confidence
That from our mother’s womb
God has knit us, His work of art
Rock our anxious worries
To Rest in God’s own peace
Underneath a Blanket of Stars . . .
Blanket of Stars
Wrap the whole world this Christmas
Surround us near and far
In God’s-woven Blanket of Stars!
Over two millenia
We’ve looked to find this Child
Holding fast to His word, His promise
Seeking to be witnesses
To God’s most Holy Night . . .
Embraced in a Blanket of Stars!
Blanket of Stars,
Did you shine that first Christmas
When the brightest one by far
Led the shepherds and kings?
