There is a star in the east on Christmas morn, Rise up shepherd and follow! It will lead to the place where the Saviorâs born, Rise up shepherd and follow! Leave your ewes and leave your lambs, Rise up shepherd and follow! 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! If you take good heed to the angels word, Rise up shepherd and follow! Youâll forget your flocks youâll forget your herd, Rise up shepherd and follow! Leave your ewes and leave your lambs, Rise up shepherd and follow! 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!
