John Jacob Niles Cover (Appalachian Christmas Carol) | Eglise St Eustache, Paris, June 2012 "Jesus, Jesus, rest your head. You has got a manger bed. All the evil folk on earth, sleep in feathers at their birth. Have you heard about our Jesus? Have you heard about his fate? How his mother went to the stable. On that Christmas Eve so late? Winds were blowing, cows were lowing. Stars were glowing, glowing, glowing."
