1)
Here’s a story I was told
About a Christmas long ago
When Jesus came into this world
Like any other boy or girl
2)
Animals were gathered round
Where a light was shining down
By a manger through the night
Their voices sang about the light
Chorus:
The animals they all did sing
It was the world’s first caroling
They sang together full of grace
While the light shown on their face
3)
Angels joined from up above
Their harmonies filled with love
A smile grew on Jesus’s face
The barn became a holy place
4)
Their voices rang so pure and true
The cow, the sheep, and donkey too
I for one I do believe
This happened that first Christmas Eve
