I was young when I heard I opened the book and read the words Stories of a star up in the sky A far off place A baby child, born to be in the light And the wise men came And the angels sang “Hallelujah”
‘Cause far away Is born a little child Far away The Savior of Mankind The Prince of Peace, the King of Kings Born in a manger Far away Seems a little closer today
And when I’m old I’m hoping to Sit by the tree in my living room Tell stories of a star up in the sky A far off place A baby child And like the wise men I will ask “What can I bring when the angels sing Hallelujah?” ‘Cause far away Is born a little child Far away The Savior of Mankind The Prince of Peace, the King of Kings Born in a manger Far away Seems a little closer today
And the angels sing “Hallelujah” And the angels sing “Hallelujah” And the angels sing “Hallelujah” And the angels sing “Hallelujah”
‘Cause far away Is born a little child Far away The Savior of Mankind The Prince of Peace, the King of Kings Born in a manger Far away (Far away) Can be a little closer Far away (Far away) We’ll come a little closer Far away Seems a little closer today
