The Friendly Beasts |
Jesus our brother, strong and good |
Was humbly born in a stable rude |
And the friendly beasts around Him stood |
Jesus our brother, strong and good |
«I,» said the donkey, shaggy and brown |
«I carried His mother up hill and down |
I carried His mother to Bethlehem town» |
«I,» said the donkey, shaggy and brown |
«I,» said the cow, all white and red |
«I gave Him my manger for His bed |
I gave Him my hay to pillow His head» |
«I,» said the cow, all white and red |
«I,» said the sheep with curly horn |
«I gave Him my wool for His blanket warm |
He wore my coat on Christmas morn» |
«I,» said the sheep with curly horn |
«I,» said the dove from the rafters high |
«I cooed Him to sleep so that He would not cry |
We cooed Him to sleep, my mate and I» |
«I,» said the dove from the rafters high |
Thus every beast by some good spell |
In the stable dark was glad to tell |
Of the gift they gave Emmanuel |
The gift they gave Emmanuel |
