A Place Called Bethlehem

There's a place where the night turns bright
A humble town in the cold starlight
The roads are worn, the doors are thin
Yet heaven's glory dwells within
No traveler lost, no wanderer stray
For hope is born in the hay
Bethlehem calls the broken near
Come find a peace that calms all fear

Though the road is long, the light is true
The love of God waits here for you
The wise men came with treasures rare
But found their hearts transformed their air
The shepherds brought no gift but awe
Yet mercy met them as they saw
For Bethlehem's story, old yet new
Holds a hope that carries through

Bethlehem whispers, you are known
No soul forgotten, no heart alone
In the darkest night, the star still shines
God's promise lives through all of time
The manger calls, the stable sings
A child born to be the king of kings
And in that place of straw and earth
He gave the world its second birth

Bethlehem stands through every year
A light of love that draws us near
No burden too heavy, no night too long
For hope endures where we belong
And as the dawn of Christmas wakes
A place called Bethlehem our hearts remain
Thanks for watching
