Bethlehem's Story
Away in a manger, wrapped in cloth was a baby no one knew who he was may be, yet a star showed him, who he was the shepherd worshiped the savior the wise man bowed down, not knowing who they were naturally
Herod tried to kill him not knowing his time has not yet come the prophet prophesied the sovereign god the child jumped not knowing it was in a womb surrounded
As he passed the street the blind saw, the lame walked the deaf heard and praised god, the leaper was cleansed there was not one stone left unturned people tried to derail him from the cross but it was us in his heart
The soldiers tried to wound him not knowing it is for their wounds to be healed they put a crown of thorns on him not knowing it is for their curses removed they nailed him on the cross not knowing it is for them to be free they put him in the tomb not knowing he will raise on the third day most of all they thought they had defeated him not knowing they have just paved way for his victory
O ,lord how can I thank you what can I give you I consecrate my life to you oh what love that forgives betrayed yet with a smile he said love you my child
