There's A Way In The Manger Songtext
von Shenandoah

In the middle of December
At an ol′ country church
The preacher told the story
About a virgin birth

Of how he grew into a man
And the way He lived His life
But what move me deep within my heart
Is why He had to die

No ordinary baby child
Was laid within that hay
The savior of the world was born
I heard the preacher say

"There's a way in the manger
For those who are lost
There′s a way in the manger
And it leads to the cross"


Now, as a humble servant
He left His father's side
Be laid in a manger
Worthy and most divine

The scene within that stable
It shows how we must come
Humbly as a little child
To know the Father's Son

I′m not makin′ light of Christmas
God bless me to the tear
But what leads us to Heaven
Is the road to Calvary

There's a way in the manger
For those who are lost
There′s a way in the manger
And it leads to the cross

There's a way in the manger
For those who are lost
There′s a way in the manger
And it leads to the cross
