The shepherds were watching their flocks in the night
When an angel appeared and said “follow the light”
They knew they were poor with nothing to share
But great adoration and the Christ didn’t care

Bring him the best or the best that you got
If it’s a little or if it’s a lot
Neighbor or stranger let everyone in
Welcome the Babe, welcome the King

They followed the star cross the mountain so wide
Carrying their offering for hundreds of miles
The finest of incense the gold and the myrrh
But it didn’t matter how much it was worth

Bring him the best or the best that you got
If it’s a little or if it’s a lot
Neighbor or stranger let everyone in
Welcome the Babe, welcome the King

This is the reason why we give gifts
To honor the memory of all those who lived
And brought him the presents that he loved so well
And saw with their own eyes the first Noel

Bring him the best or the best that you got
If it’s a little or if it’s a lot
Neighbor or stranger let everyone in
Welcome the Babe, welcome the King
Neighbor or stranger let everyone in
Welcome the Babe, welcome the King
Welcome the Babe, welcome the King
