Theocracy - Bethlehem Lyrics
All my life, I've waited and watched through the eyes of faith To see the consolation of Israel And even though the flame of my life is now growing dim I know I'll see the Savior of Israel For the Spirit of the Lord has promised unto me That I would not see death before my eyes have seen Him The promise is alive, for through this little child God's holy light illuminates Jerusalem This child will cause the falling and rising of many souls A sign for all the people of Israel This child will be the way and the life unto every soul To every generation shall the Gentiles tell For the way has been prepared in the sight of every man The Son of God Himself is born in Bethlehem A sacrifice is made in the temple on this day Redemption reaches far beyond Jerusalem O Bethlehem, your star burns bright tonight For my eyes have seen the glory of salvation's holy light Has this little child come to redeem us all? To save us from the fall Redemption is in sight Behold, the Son shines bright Under Bethlehem's star tonight Solo O Bethlehem, your star burns bright tonight For my eyes have seen the glory of salvation's holy light Has this little child come to redeem us all? To save us from the fall Redemption is in sight Behold, the Son shines bright Under Bethlehem's star tonight When all the world was sleeping deep in darkness A child in Bethlehem fulfilled the promise The ancients prophesied a great deliverer The one to break the curse of sin forever He didn't come with any worldly fanfare No royal treatment, just a dark cross to bear In Bethlehem a brand new dawn is rising A star to guide the way, forever shining New hope was born for all creation that night For though the darkness came the brightest light
