| They didn't own a house | No crib, no toys were | waiting |
| C | G | Dm | C | G | |
| Still, they had their love | for the child t | hey were anticipating |
| C | G | Am | C | G | |
| He was born | one winter night on a | road between | two towns |
| C | |
| They wrapped Him up so warm and tight and said, "It looks like heaven's come |
| down." |
| (chorus) |
| F | G | Am7 | C | |
| There was a new st | ar shining in | the sky up above |
| G | |
| By His light that winter night they found peace and perfect love |
| F | G | Am7 | C | F | |
| If we w | ant to find | it, I kno | w we alway | s will |
| Dm | G | C | |
| 'Cause that new s | tar is shining | for us still |
| (2nd verse) |
| C | G | |
| The | y worried how to feed Him. Simple trade was all they knew |
| C | G | |
| It | was hard enough to make ends meet when they were only two |
| C | G | |
| Bu | t the cold, the dark, and hunger, couldn't take away their joy |
| C | |
| And they knew that they would find a way for that precious baby boy |
| (chorus) |
| F | G | Am7 | C | |
| There was a new st | ar shining in | the sky up above |
| G | |
| By His light that winter night they found peace and perfect love |
| F | G | Am7 | C | F | |
| If we w | ant to find | it, I kno | w we alway | s will |
| Dm | G | C | |
| 'Cause that new s | tar is shining | for us still |
| F | G | Am7 | C | F | |
| If we w | ant to find | it, I kno | w we alway | s will |
| Dm | G | C | |
| 'Cause that new s | tar is shining | for us still |
| This song was obviously released for Christmas. But Mr Skaggs also released |
| it on an album quite some time ago. I had this album at one time. But |
| since lost track of it. Hope you enjoy it. I still do. |
