Rise Up, Shepherd and Follow Songtext
von Vanessa Williams

Oh, there′s a star in the East on Christmas morn
Rise up, shepherd, and follow
It will lead you to the place where the saviour's born
Rise up shepherd, and follow

Leave your ewes and leave your rams
Rise up shepherd, and follow
Leave your sheep and leave your lambs
Rise up, shepherd, and follow

Follow, follow
Rise up, shepherd, and follow
Follow the star to Bethlehem
Rise up, shepherd, and follow

Come on now
Follow

Now, if you take good heed to the angel′s word
Rise up, shepherd, and follow
You'll forget your flock, forget your herd
Rise up, shepherd, and follow


You gotta leave your ewes and leave the lambs
Rise up shepherd, and follow
You gotta leave your sheep and leave your rams
Rise up, shepherd, and follow

Follow, follow
Rise up, shepherd, and follow
Follow the star to Bethlehem
Rise up, shepherd, and follow

Follow
Follow

In a cradle of straw is a babe asleep
Rise up, shepherd, and follow
Born that man no more will weep
Rise up, shepherd, and follow

Leave your burdens, lay them down
Rise up, shepherd, and follow
For you that child will wear a crown
Rise up, shepherd, and follow

Follow, you got to follow
Rise up, shepherd, and follow
Follow the star to Bethlehem
Rise up, shepherd, and follow

Rise up


There's a light in the sky shining crystal clear
Rise up, rise up
Move on, move on
There′s a megaphone singing to my fear
Rise up, ′cause he's born, he′s born
Rise and go, you're being released
Rise up, rise up
Move on, move on
Born this morning is the prince of peace (born this morning is the prince of peace)
Rise up, I rise up, I rise up, rise up

Follow
You got to follow
Rise up, rise up, rise up
You got to follow

Rise and go, you′re being released (follow)
You got to follow
You gotta follow, yeah
Rise up, rise up, rise up (rise up)
You got to follow
I follow, follow, follow

Rise up
