Johnny Cash - We Are the Shepherds lyrics
[Johnny Cash - We Are the Shepherds lyrics]
The new Saviour sleeps on
His first earthly night
The wise men brought riches but
We brought a candle
It's all that we have but
It gives a good light
We are the shepherds we
Walked cross the mountains
We left our flocks when the new star appeared
Oh, the beautiful singin' of heavenly choir
We had to come see Him, we had to come here
We beg You forgive us for
Such a small offering
But our sheep are out there
With wolves in the night
We bring You this candle it's
All we have with us
But with it the new Saviour
Has His first light we are the shepherds
We thank Thee kind Joseph
For bidding us enter
Please take our gift for the
New babe to thine
It's only one candle but it is our symbol
Of how we believe that His
Great life will shine we are the shepherds
