The Knight of Bethlehem

The Knight of Bethlehem

There was a Knight of Bethlehem,Whose wealth was tears and sorrows;His men-at-arms were little lambs,His trumpeters were sparrows.His castle was a wooden cross,On which he hung so high;His helmet was a crown of thorns,Whose crest did touch the sky.

There was a Knight of Bethlehem,

Whose wealth was tears and sorrows;

His men-at-arms were little lambs,

His trumpeters were sparrows.

His castle was a wooden cross,

On which he hung so high;

His helmet was a crown of thorns,

Whose crest did touch the sky.
