Answer:

A star, a star, __ in the night" - from the carol "We Three Kings", the lyrics are "We three kings of Orient are, bearing gifts we traverse afar, field and fountain, moor and mountain, following yonder star. O star of wonder, star of light, star with royal beauty bright, westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light. Born a king on Bethlehem's plain, gold I bring to crown him again, king forever, ceasing never, over us all to reign. Frankincense to offer have I, incense owns a Deity nigh, prayer and praising, all men raising, worship him, God most high. Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume breathes a life of gathering gloom, sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying, sealed in the stone - cold tomb. Glorious now behold him arise, king and God and sacrifice, alleluia, alleluia, sounds through the earth and skies." Wait, no, the lyric for "A star, a star, in the night" from "O Little Town of Bethlehem" is "How silently, how silently, the wondrous gift is given; so God imparts to human hearts the blessings of his heaven. No ear may hear his coming, but in this world of sin, where meek souls will receive him, still the dear Christ enters in. O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray; cast out our sin, and enter in, be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel. O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie; above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by. Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting Light; the hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight."

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree, thy leaves are so unchanging. O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree, thy candles shine so brightly; O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree, thy candles shine so brightly; from base to summit, gay and bright, there's only splendor for the sight. O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree, thy candles shine so brightly.
