"O Sing a Song of Bethlehem"

O sing a song of Bethlehem, Of shepherds watching there, And of the news that came to them From angels in the air: The light that shone on Bethlehem Fills all the world today; Of Jesus’ birth and peace on earth The angels sing alway.

O sing a song of Nazareth, Of sunny days of joy, O sing of fragrant flowers’ breath, And of the sinless Boy: For now the flowers on Nazareth In every heart may grow; Now spreads the fame of His dear name On all the winds that blow.

O sing a song of Galilee, Of lake and woods and hill, Of Him who walked upon the sea And bade the waves be still: For though like waves on Galilee, Dark seas of trouble roll, When faith has heard the Master’s word, Falls peace upon the soul.

O sing a song of Calvary, Its glory and dismay; Of Him who hung upon the tree, And took our sins away: For He who died on Calvary Is risen from the grave, And Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored, Is mighty now to save.

Louis F. Benson

Bethlehem Primitive Baptist Church is one of the oldest churches in Upson County. Bethlehem was constituted on March 6, 1824 in what was then a part of Pike County. The original minutes for February 6, 1824 read as follows, "We, a few scattering Baptists in this wilderness country, feeling our lonesome situation as sheep having no Shepherd, often having conferred together, agreed to have a meeting house on Lot No. 17 in the District 10, formerly Monroe, now Pike County, on the west side of the [Tobler] Creek." The use of "Primitive" in the name denotes original, reminding all who pass by that we have not detoured from the faith of our ancestors. Since God does not change and the Bible is always true, Bethlehem Church holds to the past with uncompromising faith and looks toward the future with unwavering confidence in God.
