A Stick, A Carrot & String - MeWithoutYou[00:00:00]

The horse's hay beneath his head[00:00:00]

Our Lord was born to a manger bed[00:00:02]

That all whose wells run dry could drink of his supply[00:00:05]

To keep him warm the sheep drew near[00:00:11]

So grateful for his coming here[00:00:13]

Come with news of grace[00:00:15]

Come to take my place[00:00:18]

The donkey whispered in his ear[00:00:21]

Child in 30 some odd years[00:00:24]

You'll ride someone who looks like me[00:00:26]

Untriumphantly[00:00:29]

The cardinals warbled a joyful song[00:00:31]

He'll make right what man made wrong[00:00:34]

Bringing low the hills[00:00:36]

That the valleys might be filled[00:00:38]

Then child asked the birds[00:00:42]

Well aren't they lovely words we sing[00:00:44]

The tiny baby laid there without saying anything[00:00:47]

At a distance stood a mangy goat[00:00:55]

With the crooked teeth and a matted coat[00:00:57]

Weary eyes and worn[00:01:00]

Chipped and twisted horns[00:01:02]

Thinking maybe I'll make friends someday[00:01:06]

With the cows and the hens in the rambouillet[00:01:08]

But for now I'll keep away[00:01:10]

I've got nothing smart to say[00:01:13]

There's a sign on the barn in the cabbage town[00:01:17]

When the rain picks up and the sun goes down[00:01:19]

Sinners come inside[00:01:21]

With no money come and buy[00:01:24]

No clever talk nor a gift to bring[00:01:26]

Requires our lowly lovely king[00:01:29]

Come now empty handed you don't need anything[00:01:31]

And the night was cool and clear as glass[00:01:58]

With the sneaking snake in the garden grass[00:02:01]

Deep cried out to deep[00:02:04]

The disciples fast asleep[00:02:06]

And the snake perked up when he heard you ask[00:02:09]

If you're willing that this cup might pass[00:02:12]

We find our way back home[00:02:14]

Maybe start a family all our own[00:02:16]

But does not the father guide the son[00:02:19]

Not my will but yours be done[00:02:22]

What else here to do[00:02:24]

What else me but you[00:02:26]

And the snake who'd held the world[00:02:29]

A stick a carrot and a string[00:02:30]

Was crushed beneath the foot of your not wanting anything[00:02:33]
