Lyrics

Verse 1
In Bethlehem’s still night, a star shone bright,
Guiding wise men from afar.
Through desert’s weary way, they sought the day,
To worship ‘neath that holy star.
No throne of gold, no palace grand,
A manger held the Savior’s birth.
The Son of God came down to man,
To save this sin-cursed earth.
Chorus
Born in a manger, to set us free!
The King of kings for you and me.
With gold and myrrh, wise men did bow,
Hallelujah, He’s here and now!
Sing it loud, let the heavens ring,
Glory to the newborn King!
Born in a manger, praise His name,
The Savior of this dark world came!
Verse 2
The angels sang of peace to men,
To shepherds in the field by night.
They ran to see the Child foretold,
Their hearts ablaze with light.
No royal crown, no robes of fame,
In swaddling clothes, the Savior lay.
The Son of God, His holy name,
Was born to wash our sins away.
Chorus
Born in a manger, to set us free!
The King of kings for you and me.
With gold and myrrh, wise men did bow,
Hallelujah, He’s here and now!
Sing it loud, let the heavens ring,
Glory to the newborn King!
Born in a manger, praise His name,
The Savior of this dark world came!
Bridge
Oh, the star still shines for hearts that roam,
To find the King who left His throne.
From Bethlehem to the cross He’d go,
To save our souls from sin and woe!
Chorus
Born in a manger, to set us free!
The King of kings for you and me.
With gold and myrrh, wise men did bow,
Hallelujah, He’s here and now!
Sing it loud, let the heavens ring,
Glory to the newborn King!
Born in a manger, praise His name,
The Savior of this dark world came!
Outro
Born in a manger, praise His name,
The Savior of this dark world came!
