[length: 04:32]
[00:27.16]It was not a silent night
[00:34.65]There was blood on the ground
[00:40.76]You could hear a woman cry
[00:44.10]In the alleyways that night
[00:47.46]On the streets of David’s town
[00:54.10]And the stable was not clean
[01:00.79]And the cobblestones were cold
[01:07.46]And little Mary full of grace
[01:10.88]With the tears upon her face
[01:14.17]Had no mother’s hand to hold
[01:20.62]It was a labor of pain
[01:27.02]It was a cold sky above
[01:33.67]But for the girl on the ground in the dark
[01:37.36]With every beat of her beautiful heart
[01:40.84]It was a labor of love
[01:47.56]Noble Joseph by her side
[01:53.81]Callused hands and weary eyes
[02:00.86]There were no midwives to be found
[02:04.18]On the streets of David’s town
[02:07.46]In the middle of the night
[02:14.25]So he held her and he prayed
[02:21.33]Shafts of moonlight on his face
[02:27.34]But the baby in her womb
[02:31.10]He was the maker of the moon
[02:34.58]He was the Author of the faith
[02:38.64]That could make the mountains move
[03:11.09]It was a labor of pain
[03:17.93]It was a cold sky above
[03:23.98]But for the girl on the ground in the dark
[03:27.31]With every beat of her beautiful heart
[03:31.16]It was a labor of love
[03:37.95]For little Mary full of grace
[03:43.26]With the tears upon her face
[03:44.72]It was a labor of love
