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.
