[Verse 1]
Such a tiny, innocent baby
Sleeping peacefully in hay
Stars leaned down to see You
On that holy night You came
Heaven held its breath in silence
Angels whispered of Your name
Hope arrived in swaddled cloth
Love had finally found its way
[Chorus (a choir sings the course)]
Jesus, Light of Bethlehem
Son of God, our Savior King
Born to heal the broken heart
Born to make the whole world sing
Holy name above all names
Every knee will bow to Him
Jesus, Light of Bethlehem
You are Love, the Great I Am
[Verse 2]
Shepherds came to find You
Led by songs the sky had sung
Wise men carried gifts of honor
For the Father’s promised Son
Mary watched with wonder
As the Child the prophets told
Reached out tiny hands of grace
To a world so dark and cold
[Chorus (a choir sings the course)]
Jesus, Light of Bethlehem
Son of God, our Savior King
Born to heal the broken heart
Born to make the whole world sing
Holy name above all names
Every knee will bow to Him
Jesus, Light of Bethlehem
You are Love, the Great I Am
[Bridge]
Oh, the angels praise Your name
Heaven’s joy in humble frame
From the cradle to the cross
You came to save, You came for us
[Final Chorus (a choir sings the course)]
Jesus, Light of Bethlehem
Everlasting Prince of Peace
King of Kings, Emmanuel
Born to set the captives free
Let the world remember when
Love was born in Bethlehem
Jesus, Light of Bethlehem
You are Life, forever reign
