I Wonder As I Wander
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Jo Stafford;
and various other artists



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
