Israel’s Hope / On Your Journey To Bethlehem Lyrics:
Verse 1
Ancient s held a slaving people,
Yearning for deliverance;
Long deferred in their hope, grown weaker,
Hope is stirring in one small town
Truth and Grace, arrayed in straw
Israel's Hope, in a manger lay
Lift your eyes to the star before you,
On your journey to Bethlehem
Verse 2
Angels stride through the sky above you
Voices murmur in disbelief
Some they fall to the ground in worship
Others blinded by cynic schemes
Truth and Grace, arrayed in straw
Israel's Hope, in a manger lay
Steel your gaze on the star that guides you,
On your journey to Bethlehem
Verse 3
House of Bread, no distinguished namesake
No great city to draw you on,
Humble streets lead her pilgrims homeward,
Bread of Life in her arms she holds
Truth and Grace, arrayed in straw
Israel's Hope, in a manger lay
Set your heart on the star above you,
On your journey to Bethlehem
Verse 4
Here you stand with the host around you,
All believing we see the stall;
Come, Lord come is our song united,
Lord of Life, we've come to call
Truth and Grace, arrayed in straw
Israel's Hope, in a manger lay
Find your faith clothed in stars around you,
On your journey to Bethlehem
Ancient s held a slaving people,
Yearning for deliverance;
Long deferred in their hope, grown weaker,
Hope is stirring in one small town
Truth and Grace, arrayed in straw
Israel's Hope, in a manger lay
Lift your eyes to the star before you,
On your journey to Bethlehem
Verse 2
Angels stride through the sky above you
Voices murmur in disbelief
Some they fall to the ground in worship
Others blinded by cynic schemes
Truth and Grace, arrayed in straw
Israel's Hope, in a manger lay
Steel your gaze on the star that guides you,
On your journey to Bethlehem
Verse 3
House of Bread, no distinguished namesake
No great city to draw you on,
Humble streets lead her pilgrims homeward,
Bread of Life in her arms she holds
Truth and Grace, arrayed in straw
Israel's Hope, in a manger lay
Set your heart on the star above you,
On your journey to Bethlehem
Verse 4
Here you stand with the host around you,
All believing we see the stall;
Come, Lord come is our song united,
Lord of Life, we've come to call
Truth and Grace, arrayed in straw
Israel's Hope, in a manger lay
Find your faith clothed in stars around you,
On your journey to Bethlehem
