Story behind the song
Written for an advent calendar I did with my family. A song about a lamb who could not stop wandering, and got himself into big trouble.
Lyrics
Verse 1: From the moment that I was born My Momma called me The Wanderer. For I looked around in wonder At the world all around me, So peaceful and green, so bright and so clean. Would you tell me, please, I must know whats over that ridge? Would you tell me, please, whats across that stream, and over that bridge? I must KNOW! Chorus: For Im the Wanderer! Ill go wandering For all of my life! All of my life Im the Wanderer! Ill be Wandering, Dont worry bout me, Ive got to be free! I must know, right now, whats over that hill And past that horizon. I must know, Im sure it is wonderful And rather surprising, Still I must know! Bridge: So Im off on my own Im finally alone Alone and free! But Ive got to beware There are dangers out there Threatening me! Verse 2: Surrounded by enemies, wolves all around me, Broken and bleeding, my voice it is pleading! But the Good Shepherd heard my cry, He came with His staff, the wolves, they are leaving The Shepherd receiving! Though His heel was bruised, He carried me back home on His shoulders. A little bit sadder, a little bit wiser, a little bit older. But I will still, Chorus: Be the Wanderer! Ill go wandering Ill follow the shepherd, maybe together Well go wandering, past that mountain spring And over that hill, over that hill. His rod and staff, they will guide me Wherever we roam! And Im sure this Good Shepherd will find the way home! The path that leads home! The path that leads home!
