Lyrics
Verse 1
The road was dusty rough and long
Her labour pains were getting strong
The inns were full as night closed in on them
Young Mary made it to a barn
Leaning hard on Joseph's arm
His coat and straw would make for her a bed
Pre-Chorus 1
That night in Bethlehem, city of bread
Long promised bread of life was born
Chorus 1
Brightest star and darkest night
Treasure and loss
The wood and the Bread of Life
The manger and the cross
Verse 2
A wooden manger was His bed
A bag of grain held His sweet head
A borrowed cave became His borrowed home
Soon borrowed neighbors came to see
This fragile Babe, eternity
Lying there in Mary's arms awake
Pre-Chorus 2
And did the carpenter feel the rough wood
Was there in Mary's heart some pain
Chorus 2
Brightest star and darkest night
Treasure at loss
The wood and the Bread of Life
The manger and the cross
Bridge
O common place, a baby's face
Where all heaven and earth
Dance in the light
All the hopes and fears
Of all the years
Are met in You tonight, tonight
Verse 3
Tender head and rugged wood
Deepest hunger, holy food
The breathe of God comes right to where we are
Pre-Chorus 3
That night in Bethlehem, city of bread
Long promised bread of life was born
Chorus 3
Brightest glory and darkest night
Treasure and loss
The wood and the holy seed
The wood and the holy seed
The manger and the cross...
