And Did.........
And did the countenance divine
Shine forth upon Bethlehem’s hills
And did a host of angels give praise
At the birth of the Saviour by an inn.
And did the Magi come from afar
To pay homage, guided by a star,
And did Caesar a census decree
And Herod go on a killing spree
It matters not what tales are told
Or if the Truth in myths clothed
I only know my Redeemer was born
To show the Way and for sins atone
*The historicity of the events surrounding the birth
of Jesus in Bethlehem have been questioned by
most scholars over the last two centuries.
