Lyrics

How far is it to Bethlehem, not very far? Shall we find the stable, or lit by a star? Can we see the little Child? Is He within? If we lift the wooden latch, may we go in? May we stroke the clean, just the ox, there's no sheep May we peep like them, and see Jesus asleep? If we touch His tiny head, will He awake? Will He know we've come so far just for His sake? Great kings have precious gifts, and we have naught Little smiles and little tears are all we've brought For all we are children, Mary must weep Here on His bed of straw, sleep, children, sleep God in His Mother's arms, babes in the barn Sleep as they sleep who find their hearts desired
