I Wonder As I Wander
John Jacob NIles, 1934
I wonder as I wander out under the sky
How Jesus the Savior did come for to die
For poor ornery 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 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 ornery people like you and like I;
I wonder as I wander out under the sky.

What Child Is This?
(Traditional; lyrics William Chatterton Dix, circa 1865)
What child is this, who, laid to rest
On Mary’s lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him laud
The babe, the son of Mary.
Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
Nail, spear shall pierce Him through
The cross be borne for me, for you
Hail, hail the Word made flesh
The babe, the son of Mary.
So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh
Come peasant, king, to own Him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone him.
Raise, raise this song on high
The Virgin sing her lullaby
Joy, joy, for Christ is born
The babe, the son of Mary.
