In Bethlehem
We lay our scene
A city in a nation that's been
Waiting for a king
On a hill
The city stands
Ooh, not knowing that a miracle's
Unfolding in its sands
Holy Words had waited for
Hundred years and hundreds more
They didn't hear the sounding altar call
Oh, open the door
This is what you've waited for
Under the brightest star
Come the promised Savior
Oh, hear the angels sing
Do you hear their praises ring?
The prophecy fulfilled
The night was born
The King on the hill
The King on the hill
Demons tremble
Sick made whole
But the stone that the builders spurned
Will be our cornerstone
On the hill
He spoke of love
Ooh, so radical, unconditional
The world didn't know about
Yeah, the world didn't know about
Oh-woah-oh-woah-oh-woah-oh-woah
Oh, open the door
This is what you've waited for
Under the brightest star
Come the promised Savior
Oh, hear the angels sing
Do you hear their praises ring?
The prophecy fulfilled
The night was born
The King on the hill
The King on the hill
The King on the hill
The King on the hill
Holy Words they spoke before
Ringing true for thousands more
He's the Word that you've been
Waiting for...
Oh, open the door
This is what you've waited for
Under the brightest star
Come the promised Savior
Oh, hear the angels sing
Do you hear their praises ring?
The prophecy fulfilled
The night was born
Oh, open the door
This is what you've waited for
Under the brightest star
Come the promised Savior
Oh, hear the angels sing
Do you hear their praises ring?
The prophecy fulfilled
The night was born
The King on the hill
The King on the hill
The King on the hill
The King on the hill
On Calvary
The earth stood still
Did they realize, crucified
Was the King on the hill
