A Donkey's Story

I heard the door creak open And watched them slowly come inside There were just the two of them standing side by side.

She was young and in distress I sensed it right away He made a place right next to me in which for her to lay.

We were quiet, all of us Not a whinny nor a bray was heard The stable filled with quiet moans she didn't speak a word.

I stood there watching quietly As the stable filled with light My eyes were drawn toward Heaven And a special star that shown so bright.

The next thing I remember There were cries of a newborn babe He was wrapped in swaddling clothes And next to me in the manger laid.

Angels appeared and sang their praises unto the newborn King And our lowly stable was transformed

into a Holy, Heavenly scene!

Three kings came from the East And offered gifts to Him, And I remember a sweet aroma

from the frankincense of these men.

It's a moment engraved in time It affects all who will ever live The night that God chose to send His most wondrous, precious gift.

This is the story I love to tell It's from a donkey's point of view Just ask any one of my friends And they'll tell you that it is true!

This was the night that Christ was born God's gift to all who will believe Mankind was blessed, but so was I for He was placed right next to me!
