I Wonder As I Wander

I wonder as I wander out under the sky

How Jesus, the Savior, did come for to die

For poor on'ry people 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 wise men and farmers and shepherds and all

But high from God's heaven a star's light did fall

And the promise of 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 for to sing

He surely could have it 'cause He was the King

I wonder as I wander out under the sky

How Jesus, the Savior, did come for to die

For poor on'ry people like you and like I

I wonder as I wander out under the sky
