Lyrics Sample 

There’s a baby in the manger,

Jesus is his name.

There’s a baby in the manger,

From heaven he came.

There are Mary and Joseph

With their loving smiles,

Gazing at this newborn child.

With a donkey beside them,

A cow and a sheep,

Watching him there as he sleeps.

There’s a baby in the manger... (etc.) 

Little mice in the haystack

And owls on the roof,

They want to hear the good news!

High above stars are twinkling.

The moon’s shining bright

Over the stable tonight!
