Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear?
Ringing through the night, 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

Now 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 and people everywhere
Listen to what I say
A child, a child, sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
Yes he will bring us goodness and light
