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
