The Boy in the Manger

The boy in the manger
took form as our savior
in nothing but hay, there
Hey there
come on in
come on in
behold, what is to begin
He lay in his mothers womb
his eyes were like lost balloons
thinking of darkened tombs
Hey you
Come on in
come on in
behold what is to begin
And suddenly he spoke the word
of giving heaven back to earth
and giving meaning to the absurd
he held his breath and spoke again
of giving Abel back to Cain
his blood had not been spilled in vain
Hey, Cain
come on in
come on in
behold what is to begin
come on in
come on in
come on in
behold what is to begin
He spoke of being left alone
beat, whipped, stripped to the bone
and of that he had another home
come on in
come on in
come on in
behold what is to begin
The boy in the manger
took form as our savior
in nothing but hay, there
Hey there
come on in
come on in
behold what is to begin
