The Shepherd Boy Lyrics

The Shepherd Boy - The New Christy Minstrels

Written by:Randy Spark

Early one christmas morning

 

Ever so long ago

 

The brightest of stars in heaven

 

Shown down on the earth below

 

Shepherds and wise men together

 

Offered their treasures it's told

And yet there was one so humble

Who gave neither silver nor gold

 

I'm just a lowly shepherd boy

No earthly riches have I

But the love and devotion I give thee

Will last 'til the waters run dry

Though treasures of shepherds and wise men

 

Ashes to ashes have gone

 

The gift of a poor humble shepherd boy

In the spirit of christmas lives on

The love and devotion of a poor shepherd boy

 

 

In the spirit of christmas lives on
