Jesus, our brother, kind and good
Was humbly born in a stable room
And the friendly beast around him stood
Jesus, our brother, kind and good
Except the donkey, shaggy and brown
I carried his mother uphill and down
I carried his mother uphill and down
Mother to Bethlehem town
Thus said the donkey, shaggy and brown
Said the cow, all white and red
I gave him my manger far above
I gave him my hay to pillow his head
Thus said the cow, all white and red
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
I gave him my wool for his blanket worn
He wore my coat on Christmas Day
I gave him my wool for his blanket worn
I gave him my wool for his blanket worn
Thus said the sheep with curly horns
Mmm
Mmm
Mmm
The self-released by some good spell
In the stable dark was glad to tell
Of the gift he gave to me
Of the gift he gave to Emmanuel
Of the gift he gave Emmanuel
