I WONDER AS I WANDER
		   Appalachian Carol
		   
I won-der as I wan-der, out un-der the sky, 
How Je-sus the Sav-iour did come for to die. 
For poor on-'ry peo-ple like you and like I... 
I won-der as I wan-der, out un-der the sky. 

When Ma-ry birthed Je-sus, 'twas in a cow's stall, 
With wise men and farm-ers and shep-herds and all. 
But high from God's heav-en a star's light did fall, 
And the prom-ise of a-ges it then did re-call. 

If Je-sus had want-ed for an-y wee thing, 
A star in the sky, or a bird on the wing, 
Or all of God's an-gels in heav'n for to sing, 
He sure-ly could have it, 'cause He was the King. 

I won-der as I wan-der, out un-der the sky, 
How Je-sus the Sav-ior did come for to die. 
For poor on-'ry peo-ple like you and like I... 
I won-der as I wan-der, out un-der the sky.
