I Want to be a Star
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
Ask anyone who's been there
It doesn't satisfy
And leaves the soul still longing
For what gives meaning in this life
I wanna be a star
I'm somewhere in the silent sky
Like the one over Bethlehem
That brought the humble and the wise
I want the world to know the love
And the hope that's found in You
I'll shine anywhere you ask me to
I just wanna be a star
Have you ever walked outside
Into the stillness 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
Even called out to the Father
So that He could hear you say
I wanna be a star
I'm 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 that's 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
It's simply a reflection
Of your light that shines in me
I wanna be a star
I'm 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 that's found in you
I'll shine anywhere you ask me to
I just wanna be a star
With others falling at their feet
But making all the world my stage
Just doesn't mean that much to me
Ask anyone who's been there
It doesn't satisfy
And leaves the soul still longing
For what gives meaning in this life
I wanna be a star
I'm somewhere in the silent sky
Like the one over Bethlehem
That brought the humble and the wise
I want the world to know the love
And the hope that's found in You
I'll shine anywhere you ask me to
I just wanna be a star
Have you ever walked outside
Into the stillness 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
Even called out to the Father
So that He could hear you say
I wanna be a star
I'm 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 that's 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
It's simply a reflection
Of your light that shines in me
I wanna be a star
I'm 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 that's found in you
I'll shine anywhere you ask me to
I just wanna be a star
