lyrics

She’s got no one. She feels unblessed. Even the birds have gone. She prays for a guest.

Three wise men show up at her door. Thanks but no thanks, she says. Not in this storm.

I missed my chance. What’ve I done? I’d better run. Try to find the Son.

She never found the baby king. So she gives a gift to every kid she meets.
