Bethlehem Lyrics by Theocracy

Mirror of Souls

2008

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Oh 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
In Bethlehem tonight

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Oh 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
In Bethlehem tonight

Oh 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
In Bethlehem tonight

[Outro]
Oh 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
In Bethlehem tonight
[Background]
(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)

Oh 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
In Bethlehem 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)
