Religious Music - A Child Is Born in Bethlehem lyrics

A Child is born in Bethlehem

In Bethlehem

And gladness fills Jerusalem

Allelujah, allelujah.

A lowly manger shelters Him

This Holy Boy

God's angels sing above with joy

Allelujah, allelujah!

We now give thanks eternally

Eternaly

to God, the Holy Trinity

Allelujah, allelujah!

The work which His goodness began

The arm of His strength will complete

His promise is Yea and Amen

And never was forfeited yet.

Things future, nor things that are now

Not all things below or above

Can make Him His purpose forego

Or sever my soul from His love.

My name from the palms of His hands

Eternity will not erase

Imprest on His heart, it remains

In marks of indelible grace.

Yes! I to the end shall endure

As sure as the earnest is giv'n

More happy, but not more secure

When all earthly ties have been riv'n...
