Jhonny K and Krew Ft Jen Marco - 10​-​Labor of Love

from Jhonny K and Krew Christmas Angels by Jhonny K and Krew

about

So as I was looking for music to have on my album, my dear friend, Jen Marco showed me this song and I immediately loved it. A newer Christmas song that is not as well known as others, but draws a lot of emotion out of me. I was originally going to sing it, but after listening to it, felt that a woman should be singing it and Jen Marco does an amazing job with it.

lyrics

It was not a silent night
There was blood on the ground
You could hear a woman cry
In the alleyway that night
On the streets of David's town

And the stable was not clean
And the cobblestones were cold
And little Mary full of grace
With tears upon her face
Had no mother's hand to hold

It was a labor of pain
It was a cold sky above
But for the girl on the ground in the dark
With every beat of her beautiful heart
It was a labor of love

Noble Joseph by her side
Callused hands and weary eyes
No midwives to be found
On the streets of David's town
In the middle of the night

So he held her and he prayed
Shafts of moonlight on his face
But the baby in her womb
He was the maker of the moon
He was the author of the faith
That could make the mountains move

It was a labor of pain
It was a cold sky above
But for the girl on the ground in the dark
With every beat of her beautiful heart
It was a labor of love

For little Mary full of grace
With tears on her face
It was a labor of love

It was not a silent night
On the streets of David's town
