Three separate ones shine with a brilliant
lightShining thru’ darkness their light to
show,They remind me of three sweet girls I
know.They shine thru’ my window and beacon
me,And I call them, “Jacquelyn, Mary and
Noralee.
Jacquelyn is a small bright, glittering
star,Never still but sparkles like a crystal
bar.This small star is shining with all of its
might,Casting a radiance over the night.
There are so many stars dear, but none like
you,That shine in all of the beautiful
blue.
As I watch this small star, and it shines down on
me,My own darling Jacquelyn so plainly I
see.Then, I turn my eyes from this small bright
star,To another so near and yet so far.A star that shines with radiant light,Sending out rays through the darkest
night.
This star is Mary--so sweet and mild,My precious, my Darling, my first grandchildI gaze and gaze on this beautiful
star,It seems so near and yet is so far.This star , like Mary, hides its thoughts from me,Only those beautiful eyes I see.
From these two bright stars I turn to
seeA gay happy star laughing and winking at
me.This star is Noralee, so coy and
wise,Laughing and dancing and rolling those
eyes.A changeable star, yet it whispers
low,To say it will love me where ever I go.
And, I smile as I look at you beautiful
star,Shining like Noralee where ever you
are.The world is made up of darkness and
light,God made the day and God made the
night.He made every thing in this beautiful
world,Each bright shining star, and each precious
girl.
Those three special stars that shine in the
blue,Those three sweet girls so good and
true.I will bid you all a fond good
night,For I may not see you in the morning light.
