THE OAK RIDGE BOYS
"Little One"
(Shirley Watson)

She sat by the fireside
Till her eyes became too heavy
And she wandered off in dreams with elves that play
Daddy found her sleeping and took her up to bed
Where she would spend the night in Santa's flying sleigh

Christmas was a whispering in her ear
Sounds that only children's hearts can hear

Little One
In the morning when you waken
You'll find your every dream has taken form
There'll be joy
Christmas day will come to life because of you
You are loved, Little One.

Mary lay and pondered
Till her eyes became too heavy
And she finally found the rest she'd struggled for
Joseph sat in silence
Watched the baby sleeping
Wondered what the future held in store

Angle voices whispered in his ear
Reaching down he drew the baby near

Little one
In the morning when you waken
The world will find that God has taken form
There'll be joy
And the earth will have new life
Because of you
You are loved, Little One

Little One
In the morning when you waken
The world will find that God has taken form
There'll be joy
And the earth will have new life
Because of you
You are loved, Little One

Little One
In the morning when you waken
The world will find that God has taken form
There'll be joy
And the earth will have new life
Because of you
