Jesus Christ was born one day
In Bethlehem he came to stay
The wise men came far
they followed the star
When Jesus was born
Jesus Christ was born one day
In Bethlehem He came to stay
The shepherd came too
the angels said to
when Jesus was born
Jesus was born
In Bethlehem
the wisemen came far
they followed the star
when Jesus was born
Jesus was born
In Bethlehem
the shepherds came too
the angels said to
when Jesus was born
interlude
Jesus Christ was born one day
In Bethlehem he came to stay
and we will go too
and worship anew
when Jesus IS born
Jesus Christ was born one day
In Bethlehem he came to stay
And we invite you
to follow him too
when Jesus IS born
Jesus is born
in Bethlehem
We will go too
and worship anew
when Jesus IS born
Jesus is born
In Bethlehem
We invite you
to follow him too
When Jesus IS born.
