Lyrics I Want to Be a Star - Larnelle Harris

Some may dream of being an idol
With others falling at their feet
But making all the world my stage
Just doesn't mean that much to me
Asking anyone who's been there
Doesn't satisfy
And leaves the soul still longing
For what gives meaning in this life.
I wanna be a star
Up somewhere in thee silent sky
Like the one over Bethlehem
That brought the humble and the wise
I want the world to know
The hope thats found in You
I'll shine anywhere you ask me to
I just wanna be a star
Have you evr walked outside
Into the stilness of the night
And looked deep into the heavens
View the brilliance of the light
And wished upon that moment
That you could shine that way
And the called out to the Father
So that He could hear you say:
I wanna be a star
Up somewhere in the silent sky
Like the one over Bethlehem
That brought the humble and the wise
I want the world to know
Your love, and
The hope thats found in You
I'll shine anywhere you ask me to
I just wanna be a star.
I have no glory of my own
For anyone to see
Its simply a reflection
Of your light shining in me
I wanna be a star
Up somewhere in the silent sky
Like the one over Bethlehem
That brought the humble and the wise
I want the world to know (your love)
And the hope thats found in you
I'll shine anywhere you want me to
I just wanna be a star.
