Lyrics

(introduction)

Said the nightwind to the little lamb,
"Do you see what I see?
Way up in the sky, little lamb,
do you see what I see?
A star, a star, dancing in the night
with a tail as big as a kite,
with a tail as big as a kite."

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy,
"Do you hear what I hear?
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy
do you hear what I hear?
A song, a song, high above the tree
with a voice as big as the sea,
with a voice as big as the sea."

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king,
"Do you know what I know?
In your palace warm, mighty king,
do you know what I know?
A Child, a Child shivers in the cold;
let us bring Him silver and gold,
let us bring HIm silver and gold."

(key change)

Said the king to the people ev'rywhere,
"Listen to what I say!
Pray for peace, people ev'rywhere,
listen to what I say!
The Child, the Child sleeping in the night,
He will bring us goodness and light,
He will bring… us… goodness (rest) and light."
