Going through the hills on a night all starry
On the way to Bethlehem
Far away I heard a shepherd boy piping
On the way to Bethlehem
Angels in the sky
Bring forth this message
Dance and sing for joy
That Christ the King
He is born to bring us peace on earth
And He's lying in a cradle there at Bethlehem
Tell me, shepherd boy, piping tunes so merrily
On the way to Bethlehem
Who will hear your tunes on these hills so lonely
On the way to Bethlehem?
Angels in the sky
Bring forth this message
Dance and sing for joy
That Christ the King
He is born to bring us peace on earth
And He's lying in a cradle there at Bethlehem
None will hear my pipes on these hills so lonely
On the way to Bethlehem
But a King will hear me play sweet lullabies
When I get to Bethlehem
Angels in the sky
Take them from on high
Over all the manger where the babe was lying
Lying in the arms of His Mother Mary
Sleeping now at Bethlehem
Where is this new King, shepherd boy, piping merrily?
Is He there at Bethlehem?
I will find Him soon by the star shining brightly
In the sky of Bethlehem
Angels in the sky
Bring forth this message
Dance and sing for joy
That Christ the King
He is born to bring us peace on earth
And He's lying in a cradle there at Bethlehem
May I come with you, shepherd boy, piping merrily?
Come with you to Bethlehem
Pay my homage to at the new King's cradle
Is it far to Bethlehem?
Angels in the sky
Bring forth this message
Dance and sing for joy
That Christ the King
He is born this night in lowly stable yonder
Born for you at Bethlehem
