A Way in the Manger
A way in the manger, the cattle were lowing
A baby lay wrapped while bright stars were glowing
The shepherds were guarding when angels came calling.
Then leaving their sheep, they searched without stalling
The message from angels in their hearts still burning
They shared with neighbors, while to fields were returning.
Soon scholars came knocking, on what they were learning
Leaving rulers and king, with troubled hearts churning.
For God became man, aft leaving His throne.
Our Father's promise from heaven had come
Bringing to men salvation alone.
Providing for man the way to find Home
