I
IT WAS EARLY ONE MORNING IN THE HILLS OF OLD JUDEA.
THE SHEPHERDS WERE WATCHING THEY WERE CARING FOR THEIR SHEEP.
WHEN THEY HEARD A VOICE TALKING IT SPOKE OUT LOUD
AN ANGLE WAS TALKING TO THEM FROM THE CLOUDS.
II
IN THE CITY OF BETHLEHEM A SON OF GOD IS BORN,
YOU'LL FIND HIM IN A MANGER LAYING IN A BARN.
IF YOU LOOK TOWARD THE CITY THERE YOU'LL SEE A STAR,
AND FOLLOW IT TO IT'S STANDING PLACE THERE YOU'LL FIND YOUR LORD.
III
HE WILL HEAL ALL THE CRIPPLE AND GIVE SIGHT TO THE BLIND.
HE'LL RAISE THE PEOPLE FROM THE DEAD HE'LL HEAL THE DEAF AND DUMB
HE'LL SAVE ALL THE SINNERS HE'LL SET THE SINNER FREE,
HE IS THE FIRST AND HE'S THE LAST THE ONE FOR YOU AND ME.
CHORUS
HE'S THE LILY OF THE VALLEY, THE BRIGHT AND MORNING STAR,
HE'S THE FAIREST OF ALL OTHERS YOUR KING AND YOUR LORD,
HE'LL BIND A BROKEN HEARTACHE, HE'LL SET THE CAPTIVES FREE,
IT'S JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH, THE ONE FOR YOU AND ME,
