When Joseph went to Bethlehem,
C7 F                  C7
I think he took great care
   F                   Em        A7
To place his tools and close his shop
    Dm       G7       C7   
and leave no shavings there.
   F            A7  Dm      A7  
He urged the donkey forward then, 
     F           C7 
with Mary on its back,
    F                 Em
And carried bread and goat cheese
A7   Dm     C7    F 
in a little linen sack.

. F              C   F 
I think there at the busy inn
C7   F               C7
that he was meek and mild
     F             Em    A7
And awed to be the guardian 
   Dm     G7     C7  
of Mary's sacred child
   F                A7  Dm     A7  
Perhaps all through the chilly hours 
   F                      C7 
he smoothed the swaddling bands,
    F              Em     A7
And Jesus felt the quiet strength 
   Dm       C7     F 
of Joseph's gentle hands
