There’s a Rose in Bethlehem
With a beauty quite divine
Perfect in this world of sin
On this silent, holy night
There’s a fragrance much like hope
That it sends upon the wind
Reaching out to every soul
From a lowly manger’s crib
Oh, Rose of Bethlehem
How lovely, pure and sweet
Born to glorify the Father
Born to wear the thorns for me
There’s a Rose in Bethlehem
Colored red like mercy’s blood
Tis the flower of our faith
Tis the blossom of God’s love
Though its bloom is fresh with youth
Surely what will be He knows
For a tear of morning dew
Is rolling down the Rose
Oh, Rose of Bethlehem
How lovely, pure and sweet
Born to glorify the Father
Born to wear the thorns for me
I love that song...and those words have been going through my head all day. Oh Rose of Bethlehem, You were born to die for my sins. Born to wear my pain and my sorrows. I am unworthy...but You have made me Yours. You made my heart alive to Your truth. Thank You for being born to die for me. Thank You for hope. Thank You for salvation. Thank You for righteousness and justification. Thank You for Your free gift.
Here are some pictures from today. Enjoy!
