Twas the night before Christmas,

And all through the hay,

All the creatures just knew,

He would come the next day.

The cow in the stall,

Asked the dove in the rafter,

To give him a song,

That would fill Him with laughter.

And the dove in the rafter,

Said, "please, if you may,

Would mouse fill the manger,

with fresh and clean hay?"

The mouse turned around,

And said, "What do you say,

Fireflies join us,

And light up their way?

So they all did their job,

And they gave it their best,

To make their place nice for,

A heavenly guest.
