The Littlest Angel Lyrics - Bing Crosby - Christmas Classics - Bing Crosby

Let me tell you a tale that is often told 

In the great Celestial Hall 

All about an angel only four years old 

The littlest angel of all 

How all day he would play with a little box 

That to others had no words 

Oh, but there were treasures in this little box 

The treasures he brought from Earth 

Just a butterfly with golden wings 

A little piece of a hollow log 

Two shiny stones from a river bank 

And the worn out strap of his faithful dog 

Then the angels all heard that the holy child 

Would be born in Bethlehem 

And they all brought present for the holy child 

And each gift was a heavenly gem

Then the littlest angel put his little box 

With the presents fine and wrapped 

And the littlest angel sat alone and cried 

For his gift was so meager and bad 

Just a butterfly with golden wings 

A little piece of a hollow log 

Two shiny stones from a river bank 

And the worn out strap of his faithful dog 

But the Lord chose the gift of the little box 

That the child had blessed with love 

And it started glowing that very night 

It became the star up above 

When you see that star as it shines on high 

In the great Celestial Hall 

You will know the proudest angel in the sky 

Is the littlest angel of all
