LYRICS
Like a long time ago
The planets align
For a Christmas Star
This time do we know
Is it a sign
Have we gone to far?
Like a long time ago
You’d think by now we’d know
Like a long time ago
Look to the sky
To answer why
This time recognize
For direction to go
Look to the skies
Like a long time ago
You’d think by now we’d know

ABOUT THE SONG
Jupiter and Saturn will line up on Dec. 21, so close together that they’ll appear as one bright shining star. Many are referring to it as the “Christmas Star.” It’s the closest the two planets have appeared together in about 800 years, and won’t occur again until 2080.
This conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn may have an even closer tie to the Biblical story of the birth of Jesus Christ than its occurrence so close to Christmas this year. As noted by Johannes Kepler in the 17th century, a similar conjunction occurred in 7 BCE and could be the astronomical origin of the Star of Bethlehem that guided the wise men. — astronomy. com
