"The Friendly Beasts" lyrics

Jesus our brother kind and good
Was humbly born in a stable room
And the friendly beasts surround him stood
Jesus our brother kind and good
I, said the donkey, all shaggy and brown
I carried his mother up hill and down
I carried his mother to Bethlehem town
I, said the donkey, all shaggy and brown
I, said the cow, all white and red
I gave him my manger for his bed
I gave him my hay to pillow his head
I, said the cow, all white and red
I, said the sheep, with curly horn
I gave him my wool for his blanket warm
He wore my coat on Christmas morn
I, said the sheep, with curly horn
I, said the doves, from rafters high
I cooed him to sleep, so he would not cry
We cooed him to sleep, my mate and I
I, said the dove, from rafters high
I, said the bear, enormous and free
With everyone rowing, what's your gree?
I'm here to cuddle your baby please don't grieve
I, said the bear, enormous and free
And I, said the jellyfish, all sloppy and wet
I'm a combination night life moble and pet
Just deep me in water every three minute
I, said the jellyfish, all sloppy and wet
Thus, every beast by some good spell
In the stable dark, was glad to tell
Of the gifts they gave Emmanuel
Of the gifts they gave Emmanuel
Of the gifts they gave Emmanuel
