The Gifts They Gave

The Gifts They Gave - Harry Belafonte (哈里·貝拉方特)

Written by：Okun/Robert DeCormier/Carter

Jesus our brother kind and good

Was humbly born in a stable of wood

And the friendly beasts around Him stood

Jesus our brother kind and good

I said the donkey shaggy and brown

I carried his mother up hill and down

I carried his mother to Bethlehem town

I said the donkey shaggy and brown

I said the sheep with curly horn

I gave him my wool for a blanket warm

He wore my coat on Christmas morn

I said the sheep with curly horn

I said the dove from the rafters high

I cooed him to sleep that He should not cry

We cooed him to sleep my love and I

I said the dove from the rafters high

Thus every beast by some good spell

In the stable dark was glad to tell

Of the gift he gave Emanuel

Of the gift he gave Emanuel
