~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
party in the stable

it was a cool quiet night down in bethlehem
but mary'd had all the quiet that a girl can take
she rocks her little baby while he falls asleep
but it's nothing like the rocking when he's finally awake

chorus:
there's a party in the stable
shepherds dancing, and the animals are singing
there's a party in the stable
shepherds dancing, and the animals are singing
tell the neighbors next barn over
halleluia
mary loves her baby boy

she looks down at her child as he
laughs out loud
you have your daddy's sweet smile
like an opening door
but your daddy's not your father and i tell you true
he'll love you all your life but your father loves you more

ch

trouble's coming soon but we're happy now
so let's laugh while we can with the stars above
celebrate the life that was given to you
and we'll dance to the rhythm of a neverending love
