Album: Back Porch Christmas
The road was dusty ruff and long
Her labour pains were getting strong
Ends were full as night closed in on them
Young Mary made it to a barn
Leaning hard on Joseph s arm
His coat and straw would make for her a bed
That night in Bethlehem city of bread
Long promise bread of life was born
Brightest star and darkest night
Treasure at loss
The world and the bread of life
The manger and the cross
A wooden manger was his bead
A big bag of grain held his sweet head
The borrowed cave became his borrowed home
Some borrow neighbors came to see
This fragile babe eternity
Lying there in Mary's arms awake
And did the carpenter feel the ruff wood
Was there in Mary s heart some pain
Brightest star and darkest night
Treasure at loss
The world and the bread of life
The manger and the cross
O come and place a baby's face
Where all heaven and her
Dance in the light
All the hopes and fears
Of all the years
Are met in you
Tonight tonight
Tender head and rugged wood
Deep as hunger's holy food
The breathe of God comes right to where we are
That night in Bethlehem city of bread
Long promise bread of life was born
Brightest glory and darkest night
Treasure at loss
The world and the holy seed
The world and the holy seed
The manger and the cross
