In the village of Bethlehem, Jesus was born and laid in a manger. The angels in the sky sang praises at his birth, as it was a holy day that marked the birthday of the King. Though Jesus' birth was humble, God gave humanity an important gift that day by sending his son to show the perfect, holy way.

Bethlehem
There lay a child one day
And the sky was bright
With a holy light
O'er the place where Jesus
lay.

O how the angels sang!
Alleluia
How it rang!
And the sky was bright
With a holy light
'Twas the birthday of a
King.

But O
How much God gave to us
that day!
From the manger bed what
a path has led
What a perfect holy way.

O how the angels sang!
Alleluia
How it rang!
And the sky was bright
With a Holy light
'Twas the birthday of a
