In Bethlehem - Amazing Grace

Winter fires were burning bright,

Travelers journeyed in the night.

A husband led his weary wife through the falling snow

To a humble cattle stall,

Nowhere else to go.

Christmas in Bethlehem, many years ago.

There was born a baby boy,

Mother’s heart was filled with joy,

Shepherds heard the angel voices fill the night with song,

Wise men wondered at a star,

With strange celestial glow.

Christmas in Bethlehem, many years ago.

And in Bethlehem today

Children fear, yet still they play

While mothers cry and fathers pray for peace to come again.

And around the weary world echoes the refrain:

«Christmas in Bethlehem, when shall true love reign?»

One day soon the Prince of Love

Will return from skies above

And His pow’r shall overcome all pain a and tears and war.

Then shall songs of joy and praise

Ring out from shore to shore.

Christmas in Bethlehem, peace on Earth once more.

Peace on Earth once more.
