Will you leave the Christ in Bethlehem
In nineteen hundred and thirty-seven,
Or will you take Him on your way
To fill your soul with leaven?

Each year we praise the Nativity,
Hearts are touched, for a King was born;
The angels sang songs of eternal hope,
In the long ago on Christmas morn.

At the crossroads of the ages He stands today,
Beckoning to you and to me,
Will we study His law and His will obey,
So all the world through His love shall be free?

Or, in Bethlehem will you leave Him again,
Forgetting the nativity of the greatest of men;
He challenges you to meet Him today,
At the crossroads, to be shown the Jesus' way.
