[Verse 1]
In Nazareth of Galilee
An angel speaks the sacred words
Mary you will be with child
The miracle of virgin birth
Joseph heeds the angel sign
And takes her as his promised wife
Now through the night they journey on
How far is it to Bethlehem?
Wise men plan their course ahead
Searching for the promised King
Now from the east a guiding star
How far is it to Bethlehem?
[Chorus 1]
How far, how far, to the place where hope was born?
[Verse 2]
The walls outside Jerusalem
O see the mount of Calvary
There lifted high upon a cross
The Saviour of humanity
He conquered sin and buried shame
Rose to life and burst the grave
Forever bridged the great divide
With perfect grace and sacrifice
In Nazareth of Galilee
An angel speaks the sacred words
Mary you will be with child
The miracle of virgin birth
Joseph heeds the angel sign
And takes her as his promised wife
Now through the night they journey on
How far is it to Bethlehem?
Wise men plan their course ahead
Searching for the promised King
Now from the east a guiding star
How far is it to Bethlehem?
[Chorus 1]
How far, how far, to the place where hope was born?
[Verse 2]
The walls outside Jerusalem
O see the mount of Calvary
There lifted high upon a cross
The Saviour of humanity
He conquered sin and buried shame
Rose to life and burst the grave
Forever bridged the great divide
With perfect grace and sacrifice
