Lyrics

Said the night wind 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 trees

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"

Said the king to the people everywhere

"Listen to what I say!

Pray for peace, people, everywhere

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 and light"
