He Took the Woman and the Child
celebrate the birth this day
have you not heard the total story?
Christ child was born upon the hay
Mary became so very weary
Joseph thought 'what could I do'?
for her to make her feel much better
gazed at the child so young and new
became concerned about the weather
he took the woman and the child
he headed north, a lonely road
he said 'we'll be there in a while'
he knew he had a precious load
'thank you' she said in a voice so small
just like he promised, they did arrive
he said 'don't worry, not at all'
good night, good night he said good night
