Bethlehem! Oh Bethlehem!

Singing Seniors Performances.

CHORUS:

Bethlehem! O Bethlehem!

The City of which The Angels sing.

In a manger bare

Born of Mary there

'Twas the Savior Christ the King.

*******************************************************

1) Gloria! Gloria!

In excelsis Deo

They heard The Angels sing

Good tidings they did bring

Off to Bethlehem the shepherds did go. [chorus]

************************

2) The Wisemen journeyed far,

And they followed the star,

Which shined over the place where Jesus lay.

On that 12th Christmas Day,

They came to the place,

Where Mary, Joseph, and the Baby Jesus stayed. [chorus]

***********************************

3) During this time of year

Which we hold so dear

And do things that are festive beyond reason.

The Name which stands out

From Frosty and Santa, is Jesus;

Who's the reason for The Season. [chorus]
