Allred http://singers.utah.edu/ • Video created on December 25, 2009 • ©http://MormonSoprano.com • This sweet Christmas song shares the point of view of the Shepherds of Bethlehem, and of all those who desire to follow Jesus as a shepherd. Lyrics by Jaroslav Vajda and Music by Carl Schalk. All Illustrations have been used with permission, or are in common use domain. • Lyrics • 1.Where shepherds lately knelt • and kept the angel's word, • I come in half-belief, a pilgrim strangely stirred; • But there is room and welcome there for me, • But there is room and welcome there for me. • 2.In that unlikely place I find him as they said: • Sweet newborn Babe, how frail! • And in a manger bed, • A still small voice to cry one day for me, • A still small voice to cry one day for me. • 3.How should I not have known • Isaiah would be there? His prophecies fulfilled, • With pounding heart I stare: • A child, a son, the Prince of Peace for me, • A child, a son, the Prince of Peace for me. • 4. Can I, will I forget how Love was born, and burned • It's way into my heart unasked, unforced, unearned, • To die, to live, and not alone for me, • To die, to live, and not alone for me.
