In a little stable long ago,
Mary rocked her baby to and fro.
Little knowing that her son would be
One who gives us joy and victory!
There were shepherds watching flock afar
Looking up they saw a shining star.
Leading them to Bethlehem where lay
Baby Jesus sleeping on the hay.
Jesus is God’s only Son, you see
God sent Him to die for you and me.
To wash our sins away with cleansing waves
That is how we know that Jesus saves!
Written November 1972
