Going through the hills on a night all starrynOn the way to BethlehemnFar away I heard a shepherd pipingnOn the way to BethlehemnnAngels in the sky brought this message nigh :nDance and sing for joy that Christ the Newborn King is come to bring us peace on Earth and he’s lying cradled there at Bethlehem nnTell me shepherd boy piping tunes so merrilynOn the way to BethlehemnWho will hear your tunes on these hills so lonelynOn the way to BethlehemnnNone may hear my pipes on these hills so lonelynOn the way to Bethlehem;nBut a King will hear me play sweet lullabiesnWhen I get to Bethlehem nnAngels in the sky came down from on highnHovered over the manger where the babe was layingnCradled in the arms of his mother MarynSleeping now at BethlehemnnWhere is this new King shepherd boy piping merrilynIs he there at Betlhelem nI will find him soon by the star shining brightlynIn the sky over Bethlehem nnMay I come with you shepherd boy piping merrilynCome with you to BethlehemnPay my homage too at the new King’s cradlenIs it far to Bethlehem n
