C-ould th-is
Be where Jesus walked
H-ealed the sick
Made the dumb talk
'Cause I-I believe it's where He wept
For a girl on the banks that has not slept
For d-ays, she cries
Bethlehem girl
~Chorus~
She cries to the east, she cries to the west
Bethlehem girl she cries
She longs for some peace, she looks for some rest
Bethlehem girl she cries
D-o you, s-ee the pain in Palestine's streets
Or d-o you, feel the pain in Israel's song
And we're singin', h-ow long Lord
Until You wipe away these tears
I see the girl between the banks and she's, crying out, on her knees
Sh-e cries
~Chorus~
(2X)
(O-oh yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah y-eah
Yeah yeah yeah
La la-la-la
(2X)
And once a star did shine so bright
But it, don't shine no more
(2X)
And once a star did shine so bright
When, will it shine once more
And once a star did shine so bright
Will you please shine once more
