I Wonder as I Wander Lyrics

(John J. Niles)

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 recallPeter, Paul & Mary - I Wonder as I Wander - http://motolyrics.com/peter-paul-and-mary/i-wonder-as-i-wander-lyrics.html

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.
