They're putting decorations up

In front of my old church

The shepherds and the wise men and the hay

There's joseph and his mary

Looking down at heaven's birth

And the angels saying don't you be afraid

It makes me stop and think about

How you showed up down here

Humble bed and made of nails and wood

You could've picked the pilot

Something more fit for a king

But then the story wouldn't be as good

From the highest of the high to the lowest of the low

That stable tells a story of the distance you will go

For the lonely and the lost there's no sinner too far

Gone to find a savior

I am in the manger

There's a star up in the sky

That's calling all the least of these

Come make your way to where your hope is found

My money some days I feel too far out of reach

But the manger reminds me love reached down

From the highest of the high to the lowest of the low

That stable tells a story of the distance you will go

For the lonely and the lost there's no sinner too far

Gone to find a savior

Flying inin manger

You were carried by a manger

And just thirty three years later

A rugged cross made from nails and wood

And the tears fill up my eyes

You didn't have to give your life

But then the story wouldn't be as good

Fromfrom the highest of the high

And to the lowest of the low

That stable tells a story of the distance you will go

For the lonely and the lost

There's no sinner too far gone to find a savior

I am in the manger

Away in a manger

No crib for a bed

The little lord jesus lay down his sweet head

The stars in the sky looked down where he lay

The little lord jesus asleep on the hay
