The Friendly Beasts Lyrics

Jesus our brother kind and good

Was humbly born in a stable of wood

And the friendly beasts around him stood

Jesus our brother kind and good

"I" said the donkey shaggy and brown

I carried his mother up hill and down

I carried him safely to Bethlehem town

"I" said the donkey shaggy and brown

And "I" said the cow all white and red

I gave him my manger for a bed

I gave him my hay for to pillow his head

"I" said the cow all white and red

"I" said the sheep with a curly horn

I have him my wool for his blanket warm

And he wore my coat on that Christmas morn

"I" said the sheep with a curly horn

"I" said the dove from the rafters high

Cooed him to sleep that he should not cry

We cooed him to sleep my love and I

"I" said the dove from the rafters high

And "I" said the camel all yellow and black

Over the desert upon my back

I brought him a gift in the wise men's pack

"I" said the camel all yellow and black

Thus every beast remembering it well

In the stable dark was so proud to tell

Of the gifts that they gave Emmanuel

The gifts that they gave Emmanuel
