Bethlehem Lyrics by Poor Bishop Hooper

As Foretold: Part 1

0

You, O Bethlehem, you there in the land
You of Judah, are by no means least among them all
You, from you shall come, a ruler like none other
The one who will shepherd my people Israel
Will shepherd my people Israel'
After he was born, born in Bethlehem
Behold wise men came from the east
They asked, "Where is he? Who's been born the king
Of the Jews for we saw his star shining"
Over Bethlehem Bethlehem, Bethlehem
Bethlehem Bethlehem Bethlehem, so it is written
When Herod the king heard what they were saying
He was troubled and all Jerusalem with him
So assembling the scribes the people and the priests
He asked, "Where's the Christ to be born?"
And they said Bethlehem, Bethlehem, Bethlehem
Bethlehem, Bethlehem, Bethlehem, so it is written
Bethlehem, Bethlehem, Bethlehem, Bethlehem
Bethlehem, Bethlehem, so it is written
Then lo and behold the star they'd seen had rose
And came to rest over where the child was
So going in the house rejoicing they fell down
And worshiped him themselves with their treasures
There in Bethlehem, Bethlehem (You, O Bethlehem)
Bethlehem, Bethlehem (You there in the land)
Bethlehem, Bethlehem (You, of Judah)
So it is written (Are by no means least among them all)
There in Bethlehem, Bethlehem (You, from you shall come)
Bethlehem, Bethlehem (A ruler like none other)
Bethlehem, Bethlehem (The one who will shepherd my people Israel)
So it is written
