Do You Hear What I Hear

(album: A Very Merry Christmas - 1964)

(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,
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
