Here Are the Lyrics and Lyric Video of Rod + Rose's "Mary Had a Little Lamb"
Country music artist Rodney Atkins and his wife Rose Falcon, collectively known as Rod + Rose, have released first original holiday single, "Mary Had A Little Lamb." Written by Rodney Atkins, Rose Falcon, Brandon Hood, and Skip Ewing, the poetic track was produced by Hood and mixed by Jim Cooley. The poignant lyrics, which culminate into a choir-assisted chorus, paint a tender portrait of the first Christmas: "That holy night in Bethlehem. All the angels sang, 'Mary had a little lamb. Jesus was His name.'"
"When Rodney first came in with this song idea, he said, 'I have a title. I've been saving it for quite some time.' He had actually been saving it for years. He said, 'It's 'Mary Had A Little Lamb.' I hesitantly said, 'Alright,' and I kinda laughed. But then he explained the idea and how it was about the birth of Christ. I was just totally blown away by it and loved it," explains Falcon of bringing the seasonal track to life. "It's a challenge to write a simple song that has that lullaby thing about it, yet it's about the single most important thing that has ever happened."
"We just wanted to write a song that we could sing to our 2- and 3-year-old," Atkins adds, referring to sons Ryder and Scout, whom he shares with Falcon. "We wanted to write something they could get and enjoy and want to sing with us and celebrate the birth of our Savior."
Together, Falcon and Atkins-married since 2013-are an unstoppable force in life, love and music. She was a rock 'n' roll princess who was offered a record deal at 15 and has since written songs recorded by Faith Hill, Lady A and Eric Paslay. He is an established country voice and a working man's songwriter who has taken six No. 1 hits to the top of the charts. And for the first time, they've joined creative forces in an official capacity for Rod + Rose.
Here are the lyrics:
There was no room, only a manger
Nothing but hay for a bed
That's where she laid down His head
No sleigh bells ringing
No decorations
Just a mother and Child
So tender and mild
That holy night in Bethlehem
All the angels sang
Mary had a little Lamb
And Jesus was His name
That newborn Baby, our precious Savior
Would someday wear a crown of thorns
We're redeemed cause He was born
That holy night in Bethlehem
All the angels sang
Mary had a little Lamb
And Jesus was His name
Jesus, Jesus
That holy night in Bethlehem
All the angels sang
Mary had a little Lamb
And Jesus was His name
(Oh my Jesus)
That holy night in the Bethlehem
(The Prince of peace, the great I am)
All the angels sang
(From the line of Abraham)
Mary had a little Lamb
(Oh Mary had a little Lamb)
And Jesus was His name
Jesus was His name
