Our princes watching snow fall - one of God's wonders (photo by my Rebecca)
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 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
(In 1933, in the Appalachian Mountains, John Jacob Niles collected the minor key Christmas Hymn, I WONDER AS I WANDER, from a young traveling evangelist, Annie Morgan.)
