O Sing a Song of Bethlehem

Author: Louis F. Benson Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 65 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O sing a song of Bethlehem, Of shepherds watching there, And of the news that came to them From angels in the air. The light that shone on Bethlehem Fills all the world today; Of Jesus' birth and peace on earth The angels sing alway. 2 O sing a song of Nazareth, Of sunny days of joy. O sing of fragrant flowers' breath, And of the sinless Boy; For now the flowers on Nazareth In every heart may grow; Now spreads the fame of His dear name On all the winds that blow. 3 O sing a song of Galilee, Of lake and woods and hill, Of Him who walked upon the sea And bade its waves be still: For tho' like waves on Galilee, Dark seas of trouble roll, When faith has heard the Master's word, Falls peace upon the soul. 4 O sing a song of Calvary, Its glory and dismay; Of Him who hung upon the tree And took our sins away: For He who died on Calvary Is risen from the grave, And Christ, our Lord, by heav'n adored, Is mighty now to save.
