The Road to Bethlehem

         
Would you like to walk along the road
   To Bethlehem with me?
Would you like the birthplace
   Of the Holy Christ child, there, to see?

Have you ever wished you might have been A shepherd on that hill, When the angels sang that glorious news Of Pead on Earth, Good Will?

Oh! I wish I could have gone with them To seek the stable low Where they found the baby Jesus In the manger, all aglow

And I might have seen the wisemen Led there by a star so bright, And the gifts they brought to Jesus And laid at His feet that night.

Oh! My friend, you need not walk a road To Bethlehem with me To find the blessed Saviour That the Christ child came to be.

And you do not need a shepherd be, To hear the angels sing, For that song can ring within your heart, And peace to you He'll bring.

And I do not hed to go with men To find the stable low, For the Saviour lives with my heart And keeps my life aglow.

And I do not need a Star to guide me To the Saviour's side, For He walks beside me day by day, And all my life He'll guide. - Myrtle L. Andrews Dec. '80 "Log Of The Good Ship Grace"
