I Wonder As I Wander
John Jacob Niles / Jörgen Elofsson
I wonder as I wander out under the sky
How Jesus, the Savior, did come for to die
For poor on'ry people, like you and like I.
I wonder as I wander out under the sky.
If Jesus had wanted for any wee thing
A star in the sky or a bird on the wing
Or all of God's angels in heaven for to sing
He surely could have it, for he was the king!
I wonder as I wander out under the sky
How Jesus, the Savior, did come for to die
For poor on'ry people like you and like I.
I wonder as I wander out under the sky.
