In Bethlehem (Narrative) - Johnny Cash[00:00:00]

Now we are in the city of Bethlehem[00:00:02]

At the door of the Church of the Nativity[00:00:04]

Where Christ was born[00:00:07]

The gate has been walled up then enters[00:00:08]

Into the church because of the horsemen[00:00:11]

That used to come attack the place[00:00:13]

And sack the church[00:00:15]

It's been walled up to where there's[00:00:16]

Just a very narrow opening of about[00:00:18]

Three and a half feet[00:00:20]

Where you enter into the Church of Nativity[00:00:21]

So now we enter into the place[00:00:25]

Where Christ was born[00:00:27]

This is the place where Christ was born[00:00:30]

To the world over it's a mighty big place[00:00:33]

Actually physically it's a small cave[00:00:38]

Underneath the Church of the Nativity[00:00:42]

Many other people are here today to see this place[00:00:44]

Before me is the actual spot[00:00:48]

Where Christ was born undisputed to the ages[00:00:51]

This place was found and confirmed[00:00:53]

That it was the place of the Nativity[00:00:57]

By St Helene mother of Constantine the Emperor of Rome[00:00:59]

In the third and the fourth century[00:01:03]

Just a few feet away from this place[00:01:05]

Where Christ was born[00:01:07]

Where there is a Star of Bethlehem in the manger[00:01:09]

Where he was taken wrapped in swaddling clothes[00:01:12]

Meaning loose-fitting clothes laid in the manger[00:01:14]

Where he was come and visited at this very spot[00:01:19]

By the three Wisemen from the east[00:01:21]

One of the holiest of holy places[00:01:27]

In the Christian tradition the Holy Family retreated here[00:01:30]

During the massacre of the holy[00:01:33]

Innocence ordered by King Herod[00:01:34]

And just as we left the Church[00:01:36]

Of the Nativity a few minutes ago[00:01:39]

We saw another cave where so many of the children[00:01:41]

That King Herod had killed[00:01:44]

Under two years old were buried[00:01:45]
