Contemporary Christian singer-songwriter JJ Heller offers a lovely stripped down Christmas track, Star of Wonder, that’s just so pretty. Heller’s pristine delivery highlights her pure, clean voice above a haunting piano and a simple acoustic guitar. It’s such a relaxing, lovely song that would be great for your Christmas services.
STAR OF WONDER Lyrics
JJ Heller
There were kings of the orient
Bringing gifts to the child
Through the fields and deserts they came
Messiah was worth every mile
Star of wonder, star of light
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light
Gold and frankincense, myrrh the perfume
Breathes a life of gathering gloom
Sorrow, sighing, bleeding and dying
Sealed in the stone cold tomb
Star of wonder, star of light
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light
Glorious now behold Him arise
King and God and sacrifice
Allelujah, Allelu
Sounds through the earth and the skies
Star of wonder, star of light
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light
Perfect light
Perfect light
Through the fields and deserts they came
Messiah was worth every mile
