Alone in Bethlehem His mother didn't see what He would be
The baby didn't cry ‘cause He knew He'd set us free
The Son of God was here; some did not believe

The warrior child was here; still some don't believe
The baby grew to be a tender loving teacher; he was free
The innocent, He said, brother, bid them come to me

In His loving arms all who came He did receive
Even those who hated Him, He died to set them free


[Chorus:]
Have you heard the news about the One
Who set those captives free?

He sacrificed the very blood we trampled easily
He paid the price;
His sacrifice; He paid it all; He took the fall

He suffered and died, He never lied. Eloi Lama Sebach-Thani!

As a man, He said, give us Lord our daily bread

And as the tree shall fall there that tree shall lie
All that come to me I'll never turn away
Even scarlet sin I can wash away


[Chorus:]
Have you heard the news about the One

Who set those captives free?
He sacrificed the very blood we trampled easily
He paid the price;

His sacrifice; He paid it all; He took the fall
He suffered and died, He never lied. Eloi Lama Sebach-Thani!
