The Emonly place where Amthey could rest,
Where Cthey could Dboth lie Gdown,

EmPeace on earth, goodAmwill to men. ToCday is Dborn a Gking.

In the Gstable at the Dback of the innG.
[Chorus]
And it's a Ggreat day in CBethlehem,
  GGreat day in DBethlehem,
  GGreat day in CBethlehem,
In the Gstable at the Dback of the innG.
