Sixpence None The Richer - Babe In The Straw Lyrics

Babe In The Straw
Lyrics: Steve Hindalong /Music: Derri Daugherty
Originally performed by Derri Daugherty, Riki Michelle, Steve Hindalong

who is this child, 
asleep in a manger? 
the heaven's are bright 
the stable's so cold 
on this holy night, 
have you come to redeem us? 
little child in the straw 
little child in the straw 

who is this babe? 
prince of the universe 
a donkey is braying 
angels are singing 
the prophets did say 
you would come to redeem the world 
little babe in the straw 
save us all 

and if we lose sight of your sweet face 
at the birth of grace, at the birth of grace 
light of truth shine like Bethlehem's star 
lead us to where you are, show us who you are 

merciful one 
lover of every soul 
the Father's own Son 
Emmanuel 
yes, we believe, 
you are able to heal us 
Noel, noel, 
save us all 

save us tonight (repeat)
