On a quiet night, two weary folks Rode into Bethlehem, but couldn't find a host So they made their stay among the cows and sheep The babe was on his way, and neither on of them could sleep The prophets told Of a simple child given gold Who'd come to save their souls He was born to die To give his love, to give his life He brought hope for every woman and man He left with a promise to come back again And until then, love each other the best you can Mary kept her grace through the joy and pain She knew in that one moment the world had been changed While Joseph wept, he wiped his woman's brow The son of God was his to raise, but no one had told him how But he loved that child Like it was his own To teach him man cannot survive on bread alone He was born to die To give his love, to give his life He brought hope for every woman and man He left with a promise to come back again And until then, love each other the best you can One day I'll have children too And when that day comes, who knows how I'll do But I'll try my best to show In this short time, there's just one thing you need to know We were born to die Then live again in the glory of his light Learn to forgive your fellow man And even if you don't know the Lord, It ain't hard to live like Him Above all, love each other the best you can
