"Lost In The Stars" lyrics

"Lost In The Stars"

Before Lord God made the sea or the land
He held all the stars in the palm of his hand
And they ran through his fingers like grains of sand
And one little start fell alone

Then the Lord God hunted through the wide night air
For the little dark star on the wind down there
And he stated and promised he'd take special care
So it wouldn't get lost no more

Now a man don't mind if the stars grow dim
And the clouds blow over and darken him
As long as the Lord God's watching over them
Keeping track how it all goes on

But I've been walking through the night and the day
Till my eyes get weary and my head turns gay
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
Little stars, big stars, blowing through the night
And we're lost out here in the stars
Little stars, big stars, blowing through the night
And we're lost out here in the stars
