Kathy Mattea - What A Wonderful Beginning lyrics

Oh a man named John The Baptist

Had been heralding the news

About the coming of a Savior

For both the Gentiles and the Jews

And it happened in Judea

In the town of Bethlehem

With a bright start o’er the stable

Was born the Son Of Man

Oh the angels were rejoicing

As the tiny baby cried

For the hope of man’s salvation

In the manger had arrived

Meek as a lowly shepherd

But the mightiest of kings

He gives peach and life eternal

To whosever calls His name

Chorus:

Oh Emmanuel

The Father’s precious Son

Who forgives our sins and washes clean

The hearts of everyone

What a wonderful beginning

To the greatest story ever told

His birth still rings with promise

As true as in days of old

So let us sing His praises

And let us open up our hearts

And receive His timeless message

That gives us all a brand new starts

(Repeat Chorus)

Oh a man named John The Baptist

Had been heralding the news

About the coming of a Savior

For both the Gentiles and the Jews
