I wonder, as I wander out under the sky   How jesus the saviour had come for to die   For poor orn'ry creatures like you and like i   I wonder as I wander out under the sky      When mary birthed jesus, 'twas in a cow's stall   With wisemen and shepherds and farmers and all   And high in the heavens a star's light did fall   'twas the promise of the ages, it then did recall      If jesus had wanted for any wee thing   Like a star in the sky, or a bird on the wing   Or all of god's angels in heav'n for to sing   Well, he surely could have had them, for he was their king      I wonder as I wander out under the sky   How jesus the saviour had come for to die   For poor orn'ry creatures like you and like i   I wonder as I wander, out under the sky.
