Down in Bethlehem, a long time ago
A sweet child was born
In a manger low
And they came from afar
To praise the Newborn King
They saw love's holy light
And heard the angels sing

Hallelujah, the King is born
Hallelujah, the King is born

And so suddenly, and so worldly-wise
He came to lift up our hearts
He came to open our eyes
Cause there's nothing, nothing, nothing
Nothing, nothing, nothing the Divine Child cannot do
So let Him show you the light
Let Him shelter you, yeah

Hallelujah, the King is born
Hallelujah, the King is born
Hallelujah, the King is born
Hallelujah, the King is born

Down in Bethlehem, a long time ago
A King was born, yeah
Take it

Hallelujah
Hallelujah, the King is born
Hallelujah, oh Hallelujah
Hallelujah, lift your hands to the sky

Hallelujah, lift your hearts way up high
Hallelujah, lift your hands to the sky
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, yeah
Merry Christmas
