What A Wonderful Beginning

Oh a man named John the Baptist
 Had been heralding the news
 About the coming of a savior
 For both the Gentiles and the Jews
 And it happened in Judea
 In the town of Bethlehem
 With a bright star o'r the stable
 Was born the son of man
 Oh the angels were rejoicing
 As the tiny baby cried
 For the hope of man's salvation
 In a manger had arrived
 Meek as a lowly shepherd
 But the mightiest of kings
 He gives peace and life eternal
 To whosoever calls his name
 Oh Emmanuel
 The Father's precious son
 Who forgives our sins
 And washes clean
 The hearts of everyone
 ♪
 What a wonderful beginning
 To the greatest story ever told
 His birth still rings with promise
 As true as in days of old
 So let us sing his praises
 Let us open up our hearts
 And recieve his timeless message
 That gives us all a brand new start
 Oh Emanuel
 The Father's precious son
 Who forgives our sins
 And washes clean
 The hearts of everyone
 Oh a man named John the Baptist
 Had been heralding the news
 About the coming of a savior
 For both the Gentiles and the Jews
