Recorded live in The Barn at Val du Vino

lyrics

On a quiet night two weary folks
Rode into Bethlehem, but couldn’t find a host
They made their stay among the cows and sheep
The babe was on its way, neither one of them could sleep
Prophets told of a simple child given gold
Who’d come to save their souls

He was born to die
To give his love, to give his life
He brought hope for every woman and man
And left with a promise to come back again
Until then, love each other
The best you can

Mary kept her grace through the joy and pain
She knew in that one moment the world had been changed
While Joseph wept he wiped his woman’s brow
The son of God was his to raise, but no one had told him how
But he loved that child like it was his own
To teach him man cannot survive on bread alone

He was born to die
To give his love, to give his life
He brought hope for every woman and man
And left with a promise to come back again
Until then, love each other
The best that you can

One day I’ll have children too
And when that day comes, who knows how I’ll do
But I’ll try my best to show
In this short time there’s one thing that you need to know

We were born to die
We were born to live in the glory of his light
Learn to forgive your fellow man
Even if you don’t know the Lord it ain’t hard to live like him
Above all, love each other
The best that you can
Above all, love each other
The best that you can
Above all, love each other
The best that you can
