Lamb of God in Manger Lay

MP3 - Lamb of God in Manger Lay

I came up with the tune in five minutes, and then put out a "plea" on social media. Kathy Blanco responded with some lyrics she just came up up with this morning. It was a beautiful match. I hope you enjoy this song.

Lamb of God in manger lay. 
Golden threads of nature's hay. 
Humbled low for men to rise. 
He has come from Heaven's skies. 

"Here Am I", said He with haste 
For mankind to save with grace. 
"Come thou near, and be at peace. 
Let despair from death now cease". 

Jesus came so we may live. 
Jesus came so we can give. 
Glorious would be that sight 
On that holy Christmas night. 

Earth and sky sing now with praise 
On this distant Christmas day. 
Lip to horn, and stick to drum,
Make it known that Christ is come.
