The Star of Bethlehem

Have you seen this great interactive article about the Star of Bethlehem? I love when science can explain phenomenon in the Bible, because I believe it shows that the Bible isn't just a work of fiction as some may believe. God is the mastermind, and He does some amazing things!

O beautiful star of Bethlehem
Shining far through shadows dim
Giving the light for those who long have gone
Guiding the wise men on their way
Unto the place where Jesus lay
O beautiful star of BethlehemShine on
O beautiful star the hope of life
Guiding the pilgrims through the night
Over the mountains 'til the break of dawn
Into the land of perfect day
It will give out a lovely ray
O beautiful star of Bethlehem
Shine on
O beautiful star of Bethlehem
Shine upon us until the glory dawns
Give us a lamp to light the way
Unto the land of perfect day
O beautiful star of Bethlehem
Shine on
O beautiful star the hope of grace
For the redeemed, the good and the blessed
Yonder in glory when the crown is won
Jesus is now the star divine
Brighter and brighter He will shine
O beautiful star of Bethlehem
Shine on

I'm not a big fan of trying to prove Biblical stories but this one is neat. And I love the song!
