|
Before Lord God made the sea or the land
|
He held all the stars in the palm of his hand
|
And they ran through his fingers like grains of sand
|
And one little star fell alone
|
|
Then the Lord God hunted through the wide night air
|
For the little dark star in the wind down there
|
And he stated and promised he'd take special care
|
So it wouldn't get lost no more
|
|
Now, a man don't mind if the stars get dim
|
And the clouds blow over and darken him
|
So long as the Lord God's watching over him
|
Keeping track how it all goes on
|
|
But I've been walking through the night and the day
|
Till my eyes get weary and my head turns gray
|
And sometimes it seems maybe God's gone away
|
Forgetting his promise and the word he'd say
|
|
And we're lost out here in the stars
|
Little stars big stars blowing through the night
|
And we're lost out here in the stars
|
Little stars big stars blowing through the night
|
And we're lost out here in the stars
|
