Christ Was Born In Bethlehem

C-hrist born in Bethlehem
H-as purchased the one fold; 
R-edeeming the chosen servants, 
I-t's the true faith they hold.
S-avior born in Bethlehem
T-aught the will of the Father; 
I-n twenty-third September, 
A-lmighty's day draws 
N-earer.

B-ehold Christ born in Bethlehem
E-difies the flock of sheep; 
L-ord God has sent Him, 
L-etting them rejoice, not weep.
E-very country on earth is made by the Lord in heaven; 
N-owhere else though but in Israel, Christ was born in Bethlehem.
