Tip From An Angel

Sorry That I'm Comin' Here So Late
I'm Tryin' To Watch My Flock Right Now
I Heard A Baby Cryin' -- Is That Him In The Hay?
I'll Try To Whisper But My Lambs Bleat So Loud

Well, My Herd's In The Next Room
Most Times I'm With Sheep, What's New?
I Guess We Never Really Move Alone

Chorus:
It's Really Good To Be Here, Lord
Seeing Your Face -- It Sounds So Weird
But I Got A Tip From An Angel
He Knew Those Words Would Take Me Here

And I Never Thought I'd Be Surprised
But, Lord, You Made A Trough Be Your Cradle
In The Midst Of A Stable

There's Not A Bunch In Common Between You And I
And Yet You Shepherd Sheep, Too
You Gotta Know Your Flock Or Soon They Wander Out Of Sight
No, I Don't Think Sheep Have A Clue

Well, My Herd's In The Next Room
Sometimes I Wish Sheep Were Mute
I Guess We'd Better Get A Move On

Chorus:

And I Never Thought I'd See The Christ
But Lord, You Came -- It's Not Some Big Fable
In The Midst Of A Stable

It's Really Good To Be Here, Lord
Glad That I Came -- It Sounds So Weird
But I Got A Tip From An Angel
He Knew Those Words Would Take Me Here

And I Never Thought I'd Be Surprised
But Lord You Made A Trough Be Your Cradle
In The Midst Of A Stable
And I Never Thought I'd See, You, Christ
But Lord, You Came -- It's Not Some Big Fable
In The Midst Of A Stable

Sorry That I'm Comin' Here So Late
