Christian Christmas Songs

Christmas Song of Faith

I Wonder As I Wander

Words by Edward Caswall (1814-1878)
​
Collected by John Jacob Niles in Murphy, NC in July 1933
from a young traveling evangelist Annie Morgan
​
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 heav’n for to sing,
He surely could have it, ’cause he was the King.
