Lyrics
Shepherd child, shepherd child. 1.Shepherd child keeps the sheep and sings a song, Allelu, Allelu. Loud dogs fall asleep and birds hush their talk when they hear the shepherd song, Allelu. Shepherd child one day seeks a little lost lamb, singing Allelu, and looking near and looking far, Night folds a soft blanket over the day, still the shepherd is calling anew, Allelu, God is loving you. And the angels are keeping you. Allelu, allelu. 2.Shepherd child sends the fear far, far away, Allelu, allelu. Away blow the clouds and there is the lamb safe asleep with little wolves, Allelu. So the shepherd lifts up and carries the lamb, singing Allelu, where others wait for morning light. All now are home safe and hear the glad song that the shepherd is singing anew. Allelu, God is loving you. And the angels are keeping you. Allelu, allelu.
