This is an unaccompanied vocal rendition of the song Stowey, a classic English folksong typically associated with the lyrics by Frances Chesterton. The lyrics ponder about the journey to Bethlehem, asking if it's a great distance. They question whether they will locate the stable illuminated by a star and if they will be able to see the young child within upon opening the wooden latch. The lyrics further inquire if they are allowed to interact with the animals present - the ox, the donkey, or the sheep, and if they could silently observe the sleeping Jesus. Finally, they ask if they can touch His small hand.
