Thanks for bringing this song up, Jim. I have several McLain Family albums, but not this one.

Transcribed from https://youtu.be/07QmuVQTiaY?t=1279 by ear:

Have you heard the news?
You'd better put on your walking shoes
They say the baby Jesus was born tonight
Come go along with me
We'll see what we can see
They say the child's a lovely sight

CHORUS
Come on and follow, follow, follow the light
That shines from the brightest star above
Every step gets light
As the star shines brighter
To guide our way to perfect love

Friend, can you believe
That on this Winters' eve
We will sing on sweetest gift of love
In just a little while
In just another mile
We will see the Babe's in front of us

CHORUS

And when we get there
His momma doesn't care
I'd like to hold that little baby on my knee
And just so he won't cry
I'll sing a lullaby
And when he hears my song he'll smile for me

CHORUS

To guide our way to perfect love
