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
