El Niño de Belén

They told me there's a
Child in Bethlehem
Who came to the world to be born
To save us

And I don't know
If it's delirium or if it's faith
But my soul needs to be reborn

I don't know much about hermeneutics
Liturgy, apologetics
I've lived among the critics
Relying on my logic

But something in him
Calls me
Calls me
Calls me

They say it's him
God with us, Emmanuel
That in a manger he was born
Our king

Is it
The star I've waited for so long?
I'll leave all my doubts behind
And I will walk on

His arrival was prophetic
And it seems paradoxical
That they expected the Messiah
In royalty or in politics

But in humility
He calls me
Calls me
Calls me
Calls me

And when I look into his eyes
I'll shout to the mountains
That even if what I have is little
Be it failures or medals

I'll leave it all
For the child of Bethlehem
For the child of Bethlehem

Hallelujah, he was born to us in Bethlehem
Hallelujah, to Christ Jesus, Emmanuel

Hallelujah, he was born to us in Bethlehem
Hallelujah, to Christ Jesus, Emmanuel

Our Savior, Emmanuel

And when I look into his eyes
I'll sing with the mountains
That even if what I have is little
Be it failures or medals

I'll leave it all
Time and time again
For the child of Bethlehem
