I wonder as I wander, outunder the sky

How Jesus the savior, did come to die

For poor orn'ry people like you and like I

I wonder as I wander, outunder the sky

Oooh---(while lead sings)~ When Mary birthed Jesus 'twas in a cows stall,

with wise men and farmers and Shepard抯 and all.

But high from the heavens a stars light did fall,

and the promise of thee ages, it then did recall.

If Jesus had wanted for any wee thing,

a star in the sky or a bird on the wing.

Or all of God's angels in heaven to sing,

then he surely could have it.

'Cause he was the king. Oooh---(while lead sings again)

Oooh---When Mary birthed Jesus in a cows stall,

High the stars light did fall.

And the promise of ages,it then did recall

If Jesus wanted, a star or bird on wing,

or angels in heven to sing, then he surely could have it,

`Cause he was the king.Oooh---

Oooh--- Mary birthed Jesus in a cows stall

Starlight did fall, and the blessed promise of the ages,

it did recall.

If Jesus wanted a star or bird on wing,

or angels to sing, he surely surely could have had it,

`cause he was the king. Oooh---

Oooh--- Mary birthed Jesus in a stall.

Starlight did fall, in the promise of ages,

it did recall.

If Jesus wanted a bird on wing,

or angels to sing, he surely could have it, cause he was king.

Oooh----
