Christmas at the Manger - Rod Luther - Lyrics / Music & Production - Mitch Cooper

[Verse]
He sat there in the darkness, among the quiet sounds of sleep
He could smell the hay around him, he could hear the gentle breeze
He smiled as he looked down, at his precious newborn son
He wiped his tears and wondered, could this really be the one?
Is this baby that's before me, the one who'll save the world
Was my wife a vessel used for God's blessed gift to be unfurled
He only had one focus, on his mind that night
It was the Savior who he called his son, he picked him up and held him tight

[Chorus]
He spent Christmas at the Manger, only one thing on his mind
It was the precious baby Jesus, who God sent into his life
He spent Christmas at the Manger, his heart was filled with joy
He spent Christmas at the Manger, with his baby boy

[Verse]
He sat there in the darkness, as his daughter said her prayers
She knelt there by her bedside, as she held her teddy bear
She prayed to God for Santa, to bring her lots of toys
He realized he hadn't taught her, the one true Christmas joy
So he sat her down and took her, to a land so far away
He held her hand and told her, about the first Christmas Day
She smiled as she wiped her tears, over all that she heard
She knew that she would spend this Christmas, at the Manger

[Chorus]
She spent Christmas at the Manger, only one thing on her mind
It was the precious baby Jesus, who God sent into her life
She spent Christmas at the Manger, her heart was filled with joy
She spent Christmas at the Manger, with the baby boy
Let's spend Christmas at the Manger
With the baby boy

Let's spend Christmas at the Manger
With the baby boy
