Bethlehem Delivery
O thou little town
situated within the largeness of Judah
Wee little lamb Bethlehem
skipping alongside the big city rams
Chosen by God
for your humbleness
You were never numbered
amongst the mighty and proud
Receive your special delivery,
Messiah in a manger ...
the Highest born amidst the lowly
Savior of the world
born in such a small place
The few shepherds who saw the holy view,
would never forget the golden child’s face
The goodwill of God towards man
was birthed in little Bethlehem
A love so large and infinite
delivered in a tiny parcel of land —
Bethlehem, like a mustard seed,
is where the gospel of salvation began
