Lyrics:
Just a tiny nowhere town
With a tiny no-room inn
This is where the greatest story ever told begins
Where just a tiny beating heart
Had all creation leaning in
That night the world forever changed
Because of Bethlehem

It's where a star led to a stable
A baby’s cry made angels sing
And the search to find a savior
Led to Heaven’s humble King

Where the wise men found the answer
The shepherds found the lamb
And I found my Immanuel
Because of Bethlehem

Love is born
Hope is here
Heaven’s light has made the darkness disappear
Peace on earth
Good will to men
God with us
All because of Bethlehem

From a child in a cradle
to a king upon a cross
He knew the road was leading Him
To pay a crimson cost
And when no other arms could carry (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
The weight of all our sin (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
He took the fall and it happened all (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Because of Bethlehem (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Love is born
Hope is here
Heaven’s light has made
the darkness disappear
Peace on earth
Good will to men
God with us
All because of Bethlehem

Because of Bethlehem

From a tomb that love left empty
To a Father’s right hand throne
And a promise He’s preparing us
A place we’ll soon call home
He who came to earth from heaven
Is coming back again
And our eyes will see eternity
Because of Bethlehem

Love is born
Hope is here
Heaven’s light has made
the darkness disappear
Peace on earth
Good will to men
God with us
All because of Bethlehem
God with us
All because of Bethlehem

Isaiah 7:14 - "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel."

[beckybrooks]

First of all it sounds like a poem I'd write. But too, it sounds like a song that would be included in my church's Christmas Cantata.
It's really pretty.
