Subject: RE: Lyr Req: He Said If You Love Me Feed My Sheep
Lyr. Add: Don't you Hear the Lambs a-cryin
As sung by Mike, Peggy and Penny Seeger on
American Folk Songs for Christmas


Don't you hear the lambs a-crying?
On that other green shore?
Don't you hear the lambs a-crying?
O Good Shepherd, go feed-a my sheep!

Some for Paul and some for Silas
Some for to make-a my heart rejoice
Don't you hear the lambs a cryin'
O Good Shepherd, go feed-a my sheep!

Don't you see the stars a-shining
On that other green shore?
Don't you see the stars a-shining
O Good Shepherd, go feed-a my sheep!

Some for Paul and some for Silas
Some for to make-a my heart rejoice
Don't you hear the lambs a cryin'
O Good Shepherd, go feed-a my sheep!

Don't you hear the lambs a-crying?
On that other green shore?
Don't you hear the lambs a-crying?
O Good Shepherd, go feed-a my sheep!

Will be getting the book by Ruth Seeger where this version was come from
