Come and See What's Happenin' In the Barn

Come and see what's happenin' in the barn
I've seen nothin' like this since I've been on this farm
Those strangers camping out there, have a baby in their arms
Come and see what's happenin' in the barn

Must have been sometime 'bout close to midnight
A big ole guy came knockin' at my door
He said his wife was about to have a baby
She just couldn't travel anymore

I said the rooms had all been rented out
But they'd find shelter out there in the barn
They could throw some blankets in the stable
At least, they would be dry and safe from harm

Come and see what's happenin' in the barn
I've seen nothin' like this since I've been on this farm
Those strangers camping out there, have a baby in their arms
Come and see what's happenin' in the barn

Sometime before dawn, I was awakened
The light was floodin' through the windowpane
A star as bright as moonlight was shinin'
And pretty music I could not explain

And so, I ran downstairs to have a look around
And I tell you I could not believe my eyes
A crowd had gathered all around the manger
And they were talkin' about God's big surprise

Come and see what's happenin' in the barn
I've seen nothin' like this since I've been on this farm
Those strangers camping out there, have a baby in their arms
Come and see what's happenin' in the barn
Come and see

The shepherds said that they'd been on the hillside
Tellin' stories just to stay awake
The baby lambs were sleepin' near the campfire
The ewes were huddled by the stone-fenced gate

And then the sky just seemed to open wide
With a sound and light that they could hardly bear
What they swore were angels sang in chorus
"You'll find the new Messiah over there"

Now go and see what's happening in the barn
There's been nothin' like it ever happened on this farm
The strangers that camped out there have a baby in their arms
Go and see what's happenin' in the barn

Come and see what's happenin' in the barn! (come and see, come and see)
I've seen nothin' like this since I've been on this farm
Those strangers camping out there, have a baby in their arms
Now, come and see what's happenin' in the barn
Come and see what's happenin' in the barn

Come and see (come and see) (come and see) (come and see)
Come and see what's happenin' in the barn
Come and see (come and see) (come and see) (come and see)
Come and see what's happenin' in the barn
Come and see (come and see) (come and see) (come and see)
Come and see
