lirik lagu mewithoutyou - a stick a carrot & string

the horse’s hay beneath his head
our lord was born to a manger bed
that all whose wells run dry
could drink of his supply

to keep him warm, the sheep drew near
so grateful for his coming here
come with news of grace
come to take my place
the donkey whispered in his ear
“child, in 30-some-odd years
you’ll ride someone who looks like me
untriumphantly”

the cardinals warbled a joyful song
he’ll make right what man made wrong
bringing low the hills
that the valleys might be filled

then “child”, asked the birds
“well, aren’t they lovely words we sing?”
the tiny baby layed there
without saying anything

at a distance stood a mangy goat
with the crooked teeth and a matted coat
weary eyes and worn
chipped and twisted h-rns

thinking “maybe i’ll make friends someday
with the cows and the hens in the rambouillet
but for now, i’ll keep away
i’ve got nothing smart to say”

there’s a sign on the barn
in the cabbage town
“when the rain picks up
and the sun goes down
sinners, come inside
with no money, come and buy

no clever talk, nor a gift to bring
requires our lowly, lovely king
come now empty handed, you don’t need anything”

and the night was cool
and clear as gl-ss
with the sneaking snake in the garden gr-ss
deep cried out to deep
the disciples fast asleep

and the snake perked up
when he heard you ask
“if you’re willing that
this cup might p-ss
we could find our way back home
maybe start a family all our own”

“but does not the father guide the son?
not my will, but yours be done.
what else here to do?
what else me, but you?”

and the snake who’d held the world
a stick, a carrot and a string
was crushed beneath the foot
of your not wanting anything
