Lincoln Brewster's rendition of "Do You Hear What I Hear" is a classic Christmas carol that tells the story of the nativity through a chain of conversations. The night wind tells the little lamb about a star, the lamb tells the shepherd boy about a song, the shepherd boy tells the mighty king about a child, and the king tells the people to pray for peace. The song emphasizes the birth of Jesus as the bringer of goodness and light, and it calls for peace and hope. Brewster's version is a modern, guitar-driven take on this beloved carol, maintaining its traditional message of wonder and joy.

Said the night wind to the little lamb
Do you see what I see
Way up in the sky little lamb
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 shepard boy
Do you hear what I hear
Ringing through the sky shepard boy
Do you hear what I hear
A song, a song
High above the tree
With a voice as big as the sea
With a voice as big as the sea
Said the shepard boy to the mighty king
Do you know what I know
In your palace wall mighty king
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
Pray for peace people everywhere
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
The child, the child
Sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
