Asleep In The Hay. Many a man has sought to be God destroying the world on his way. But only one God ever thought to be man he was born on Christmas Day. Many a pauper has reached for the stars dreaming of wealth he would own.

Many a manhas sought to be Goddestroying the worldon his way
But only one Godever thought to be manhe was bornon Christmas Day
Many a pauperhas reached for the starsdreaming of wealthhe would own
But the richest of allgave everything upas a starled the way to his home
The world unawarethat the baby was bornnone seemed to careon that first Christmas morn
Only shepherds came runningfrom hills far awayto see the king of all kingsto bow and obeythe baby asleep in the hay
The magi wore crownsas they carried their giftsto the foot of an old manger bed
That cradled the kingwho wouldrule the whole worldwith a crown of thornson His head
The world unawarethat the baby was bornnone seemed to careon that first Christmas morn
Only shepherds came runningfrom hills far awayto see the king of all kingsto bow and obeythe baby asleep in the hay
Majesty sovereigntypower and mightin the skin of a babythat first Christmas night
No triumphal entryas he came to this worldjust born of a scared little girl
The world unawarethat the baby was bornnone seemed to careon that first Christmas morn
Only shepherds came runningfrom hills far awayto see the king of all kingsto bow and obeythe baby asleep in the hay
