A Church On Bethlehem Road

A Church On Bethlehem Road

Often in service Mom would set me in the floor

I would play at Daddy’s feet

I heard the good news of Christ our Lord

No words ever sounded so sweet

He told of manger in Bethlehem

Christ was born so meek and low

They worshiped our Lord for the very first time

At a church on Bethlehem road

At a church on Bethlehem road

 

CHORUS

Just a little country church down a dusty road

No steeple just people we loved

The pews weren’t padded and neither were the pockets

Of the folks that filled them up

Bro Deacon would pray and the Church would sing

“Praise God from whom all blessings flow”

God’s love was truly shown

At a Church on Bethlehem Road

 

Running through the yard in my Sunday shoes

Momma calling child keep your clothes clean

Little did I know that these childhood memories

Would become such sacred scenes

As my mind wonders back down Bethlehem Road

It comforts my heart to know

That Jesus was born and I was born again

At a church on Bethlehem Road

At a church on Bethlehem Road

 

BRIDGE

From the very first congregation

In that stable long ago

With Love and adoration

How God’s Church has grown

From humble small beginnings

To the Church that we now know

Thank God for sending Jesus

To a Church on Bethlehem Road
