And He stated and promised He'd take special care
As long as the Lord God's watching over them
And we're lost out here in the stars
Now a man don't mind if the stars grow dim
But I've been walking through the night and the day
And one little star fell alone
Then the Lord God hunted through the wide night air
And sometimes I think maybe God's gone away
Forgetting His promise and word He'd say
And we're lost out here in the stars
And the clouds blow over and darken him
And they ran through His fingers like grains of sand
For the little dark star on the wind down there
Keeping track how it all goes on
Little stars, big stars, blowing through the night
Little stars, big stars, blowing through the night
So it wouldn't get lost no more
Till my eyes get weary and my head turns gray
