[bodytext] => A little boy was tending sheep On a hill out in the east. He watched the same stars that I do As our eyes beheld this feast. The light that left the nearest star Left it’s home before our birth. It travelled many countless miles Before it bounced it’s warmth on Earth. The clouds were fluffy white and high Much like his grazing flock, Who then would settle down and sleep While the boy sat on smooth rock. In awe and wonder he beheld A shooting star flash by. He hardly could contain his voice Singing soft gentle lullabies. I know the circle leading east from west Will never end you see. Just like the sky and stars above That hover over me! The wind I hear and feel this night Might contain songs from this shepherd boy. So I also harmonize with him, Singing praises to our Lord on High!
