Lyrics The Animals' Gifts - 4 Star View

Jesus our savior, kind and good
Was humbly born in a stable of wood
And the friendly beasts around Him stood
Jesus our saviour, kind and good

I, said the donkey shaggy and brown
Carried His mother up hill and down
I carried her safely to Bethlehem town
I, said the donkey shaggy and brown

I, said the cow all white and red
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 curly horn
Gave Him my blanket for to warm
He wore my coat on Christmas morn
I, said the sheep with curly horn

I, said the dove, from the rafters high
Cooed Him to sleep so He would not cry
We cooed Him to sleep, my lover and I
I, said the dove, from the rafters high

I said the camel all yellow and black
Over the desert, up on my back
Brought him a gift in the wisemen's sack
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 they gave Immanuel
The gifts they gave Immanuel
