"DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR"

Said the night wind to the little lamb,
"Do you see what I see?"
[Do you see what I see?]
"Way up in the sky, little lamb
Do you see what I see?"
[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?"
[Do you hear what I hear?]
"Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear?"
[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?"
[Do you know what I know?]
"In your palace warm, mighty king
Do you know what I know?"
[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,
[King to the people everywhere]
"Listen to what I say." [Listen to what I say.]
"Pray for peace, people everywhere."
[Pray for peace, people everywhere.]
"Listen to what I say." [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!"

Do you hear what I hear?
[Do you hear what I hear?]
Do you hear what I hear?
[What I hear, what I hear?]
[Repeat]
