|
<p>Jesus, our Brother, strong and good,<br>
|
|
Was humbly born in a stable rude,<br>
|
|
And the friendly beasts around Him stood,<br>
|
|
Jesus, our Brother, strong and good.</p>
|
|
<p>“I,” said the donkey, shaggy and brown,<br>
|
|
“I carried His mother uphill and down,<br>
|
|
I carried His mother to Bethlehem town;<br>
|
|
I,” said the donkey, shaggy and brown.</p>
|
|
<p>“I,” said the cow, all white and red,<br>
|
|
“I gave Him my manger for His bed,<br>
|
|
I gave Him hay to pillow His head;<br>
|
|
I,” said the cow, all white and red.</p>
|
|
<p>“I,” said the sheep with curly horn,<br>
|
|
“I gave Him my wool for His blanket warm,<br>
|
|
He wore my coat on Christmas morn;<br>
|
|
I,” said the sheep with curly horn.</p>
|
|
<p>“I,” said the dove, from the rafters high,<br>
|
|
“I cooed Him to sleep that He should not cry,<br>
|
|
We cooed Him to sleep, my mate and I;<br>
|
|
I,” said the dove, from the rafters high.</p>
|
|
<p>Thus all the beasts, by some good spell,<br>
|
|
In the stable dark were glad to tell<br>
|
|
Of the gifts they gave Emmanuel,<br>
|
|
The gifts they gave Emmanuel.</p>
