THE STREETS OF BETHLEHEM


The streets of Bethlehem
Have gold tarred to the hem;
They burn with shinny gold;
Sight lovely to behold.

The streets of Bethlehem
Do call men to the King
And yes, the bells do chime;
‘Oh come and see the King!'

The streets of Bethlehem
Are full of marvelous things;
A babe this evening lies
But wrapped in swaddling cloth.

The star does guide the wise
Into the place where lies
The King of kings – the LORD;
The Lord who owns the earth.

The streets of Bethlehem
Are lovely to behold;
The streets garnished with pearl
Do lead the costly in.

Oh, beauteous Bethlehem!
The streets of Bethlehem!
Do burn with suited gold;
They adorn the city's gate!

Oh Bethlehem Judah,
You are not the least
For out of you shall come
He that shall rule Israel.
