Lyrics

Was I There?

Was I there? Did I sing with the angels?
Did my heart and my voice soar with them?
I am sure that I sang in the heavens.
That night in Bethlehem.

Was I there when the shepherds did hasten?
Did I follow in spirit with them?
Did I stand there in awe at the stable
That night in Bethlehem?

Oh, silent night, holy night
Was I there as an angel on earth?

Oh Precious Babe, Purest Light
Was I there to rejoice His birth?

Was I there? Did I watch with the angels
As the Savior healed those who believed?
Did I hear as He taught every sermon
On shorelines near Galilee?

Oh, Son of God, Pow’r Divine
Was I there as He walked among men?

Exemplar of truth sublime;
Was I there in Jeruselem?

Was I there, did I weep with the angels
As He gave up His life for the world?
Did my heart sing with joy on the third day
When God’s perfect plan unfurled?

Oh, Lamb of God, King of Kings
Left His throne to be born here for us

Oh, Promised One, praise we sing
Was I there to witness?

Sacred birth of Jesus.
