Once Upon a Christmas Donkey

Once upon a Christmas donkey
Mary in labor was led to a door
The man inside took pity on the young couple
Allowed them to stay in his stable
Where animals kept watch

Four-footed, hooved, and horned,
They understood that magic was afoot
Joseph was grateful for the place to stay
Being a kind, empathetic humble man.
A star in the east followed the steps of the donkey
Waiting in anticipation for the birth of our Christ, baby Jesus
