? Welcome to the start of my holiday album, "Paws for the Holidays"! We're starting with a song that, though I'm not religious, I have always enjoyed the orchestration behind this song.

???? I wanted to start this album strong... and, though I may not have done that per se, I still like how this song sounds. Unfortunately, I'm starting this album with a song in a musical trope that I was more into when I first started but have quickly realized isn't the best to keep listeners listening throughout — SO, IF YOU HAPPEN TO BE READING THIS, KEEP LISTENING! IT PICKS UP AT 1:00, I SWEAR!

Yes, I have always enjoyed orchestrating this song. It has such a beautiful chord progression that I just had to sing it! This song is always one of the softer, relaxed religious holiday songs and I wanted to see if I could spruce that up a bit without detracting too much from the song's overall tone. As such, I wanted to introduce the piece in a similar style to what most iterations of the song are or would be, chill, slow-paced, and so on... and then it gets into drum and bass! (Or, at least, my attempt at drum and bass).

???? This song also features my sister, my boyfriend, and my mother on the "response" vocals. My mother participated in that part but her audio glitched pretty badly and I couldn't get her to record her part again, so instead I just replaced it with a pitched-up version of my voice.

Lyrics:
Said the night wind to the little lamb
Do you see what I see?
(Do you see what I see?)
Way up in the sky, little lamb
Do you see what I see?
(Do you see what I see?)
A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite
With a tail as big as a kite

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear?
(Do you hear what I hear?)
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear?
(Do you hear what I hear?)
A song, a song high above the trees
With a voice as big as the sea
With a voice as big as the sea

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king
Do you know what I know?
(Do you know what I know?)
In your palace warm, mighty king
Do you know what I know? (Do you know what I know?)
A Child, a Child shivers in the cold
Let us bring him silver and gold
Let us bring him silver and gold

Said the king to the people everywhere
Listen to what I say! (Listen to what I say!)
Pray for peace, people, everywhere
Listen to what I say! (Listen to what I say!)
The Child, the Child sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light

óÓÒò
