Verse One
No proper place
No regal palace
To receive a royal birth
God's gift of love
Wrapped in an blanket (Infant)
Would be His way to reach the earth
Chorus
A bed of straw became a cradle
Embracing God in human form
One would expect more than a stable
But where else would a Lamb be born
But where else would a Lamb be born
Verse Two
No stately house
No noble mansion
Where He would reign in majesty
The path He chose
Led to an altar
Where He would give His life for me
Chorus
A bed of straw became a cradle
Embracing God in human form
One would expect more than a stable
But where else would a Lamb be born
But where else would a Lamb be born
Bridge
He is the great I AM
The sacrificial lamb
Who takes away the sins of the world
Chorus
A bed of straw became His cradle
Embracing God in human form
One would expect more than a stable
But where else would a Lamb be born
But where else would a Lamb be born
