Let me tell you a tale that is often told |
[00:09.156] |
In the great Celestial Hall |
[00:13.004] |
All about an angel only four years old |
[00:19.508] |
The littlest angel of all |
[00:26.455] |
How all day she would play with a little box |
[00:32.956] |
That to others had no words |
[00:38.316] |
Oh, but there were treasures in this little box |
[00:44.395] |
The treasures she brought from Earth |
[00:50.044] |
Just a butterfly with golden wings |
[00:57.108] |
A little piece of a hollow log |
[01:02.491] |
Two shiny stones from a river bank |
[01:08.135] |
And the worn out strap of her faithful dog |
[01:14.755] |
Then the angels all heard that the holy child |
[01:26.423] |
Would be born in Bethlehem |
[01:31.299] |
And they all brought present for the holy child |
[01:37.619] |
And each gift was a heavenly gem |
[01:43.379] |
Then the littlest angel put her little box |
[01:48.734] |
With the presents fine and wrapped |
[01:54.981] |
And the littlest angel sat alone and cried |
[02:01.402] |
For her gift was so meager and bad |
[02:06.762] |
Just a butterfly with golden wings |
[02:13.090] |
A little piece of a hollow log |
[02:18.308] |
Two shiny stones from a river bank |
[02:24.003] |
And the worn out strap of her faithful dog |
[02:30.898] |
But the Lord chose the gift of the little box |
[02:41.916] |
That the child had blessed with love |
[02:47.210] |
And it started glowing that very night |
[02:53.226] |
It became the star up above |
[02:58.114] |
When you see that star as it shines on high |
[03:04.667] |
In the great Celestial Hall |
[03:09.732] |
You will know the proudest angel in the sky |
[03:16.170] |
Is the littlest angel of all |
[03:21.388] |
With her butterfly with golden wings |
[03:27.770] |
A little piece of a hollow log |
[03:33.266] |
Two shiny stones from a river bank |
[03:38.801] |
And the worn out strap of her faithful dog |
