echo the angels - jeff jim lyrics

[verse 1]
o precious town of bethlehem
sleeping so silently
little do you know in your midst
is crowned the king of kings

o dirty manger carrying
the saviour’s tiny head
the one who made the straw and hay
has now made it his bed

[chorus]
alleluia, alleluia
hallelujah to the king of kings
christ is born, hope is found
we’re echoing the angel’s sound

[verse 2]
and o what a sight to behold
eve’s promise now fulfilled
how could a conquering king come down
and be born in a inn

see star that marks his promised birth
see cross looming too near
the side that bears the manger’s stench
will one day bear my spear
[chorus]
alleluia, alleluia
hallelujah to the king of kings
christ is born, hope is found
we’re echoing the angel’s sound

[verse 3]
see mary holding sleeping child
see joseph leaning close
as angels in the distant sky
are singing glorious songs

a random stranger, passerby
wouldn’t see anything more
but all of heaven held its breath
as lamb let out a roar

[chorus]
alleluia, alleluia
hallelujah to the king of kings
christ is born, hope is found
we’re echoing the angel’s sound

[verse 4]
and o, precious town of bethlehem
treasure what’s here tonight
for before you can even blink
the next thing in your sights
will be that tiny, precious babe
the one you used to rock
beaten, spit on, and led away
to death upon a cross

[chorus]
alleluia, alleluia
hallelujah to the king of kings
christ is born, hope is found
we’re echoing the angel’s sound

[verse 5]
but don’t you cry, wipe tears away
this sadness will be gone
when you remember on this day
the promised child was born

the promise didn’t say he’d stay dead
or that he wouldn’t rise
so for now just fall asleep to stars
on beautiful bethlehem night
