Matthew West - Because Of Bethlehem 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
