Stars Flicker in a Winter Sky - track 06

I Don’t Know Why

There’s a light bright in the sky…..and angels singing on high
And I don’t know why … I don’t know why ….I don’t know why
Kings are travelling this land …..With precious gifts in their hands
And I don’t know why … I don’t know why ….I don’t know why
Shepherds are leaving their sheep ….. In the darkness so deep
And I don’t know why … I don’t know why ….I don’t know why
Can’t you hear what their singing …. Can’t you hear the bells ringing?
A king…. a King is born today

A babe in a manger I found ….. With children gathered around
But I don’t know why … I don’t know why ….I don’t know why
The people gathered in praise …… Joyful voices they raise
But I don’t know why … I don’t know why ….I don’t know why
Lights shine in every town ….. Under trees presents are found
But I don’t know why … I don’t know why ….I don’t know why
Can’t you hear what their singing …. Can’t you hear the bells ringing?
A king a King is born today … But I don’t know why … I don’t know why

In a distant land a King was born …… God’s blessings that first Christmas morn
A gift of love …… A new dawn ….. Saviour for the world …. For every one
But I don’t know why … I don’t know why
In this day the scene was set …. And the story hasn’t ended yet
A gift of love for all was born …… On that very first Christmas morn
But I must know why … I must know why

A lonely cross on a hill so high ….. Slowly, Slowly a young man dies
And I don’t know why
Three days later He lives again …. Gathered all the anguish and pain
And now I know why … Now I know why ….Now I know why
And now I know why … Now I know why ….Now I know why
Now I hear what their singing …. Now I hear the bells ringing?
A king… a King was born or me … A king.... a King died for me
And now I know why … Now I know why
And now I know why … Now I know why
