Would you have been sleepless in Bethlehem
The night that Jesus was born?
Would you have sensed
A mother's distress
As she labored, tired and worn?

Would you have heard, the angels' sweet song
As it echoed across the hills?
Would you have known,
In a stall, dark and lone,
That prophecy was fulfilled?

Would you have been sleepless in Bethlehem
That long ago wondrous night?
When an infant so small,
Yet Saviour of all,
Brought the world peace, hope, and light.
