Whitney Houston recorded "Do You Hear What I Hear" for the charity album "A Very Special Christmas (Volume 1)" in 1989. The song was later re-released in 1995 on the U.S. maxi singles for "Exhale (Shoop Shoop)."

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear
Ringing through the night, shepherd 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 shepherd boy to the mighty king
Do you know what I know
In your palace warm, 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
A child, a child, sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light
