Born in Bethlehem

[Verse 1]
Oh, little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by

[Verse 2]
For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wand'ring love

[Pre-Chorus]
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

[Chorus]
Come behold Him
He is holy
Christ our Savior
Born in Bethlehem
Born in Bethlehem

[Verse 3]
O holy child of Bethlehem
Descend to us we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born to us today

[Pre-Chorus]
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

[Chorus]
Come behold Him
He is holy
Christ our Savior
Born in Bethlehem

[Verse 4]
Yet in the dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

[Chorus]
Come behold Him
He is holy
Christ our Savior
Born in Bethlehem
Come adore Him
He is worthy
Christ our Savior
Born in Bethlehem
Born in Bethlehem

[Outro]
O holy child of Bethlehem
Descend to us we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born to us today
