Hive Open Mic #202 - Hai Kota Mungil Betlehem [nata's cover song] - KJ 094

▶️ Watch on 3Speak

Hi everyone...how are you today, I hope you are always healthy. My name is Renata, this is my new account. I can't open my old account (@renataparna) anymore because I lost the password and other keys. This time I want to share a cover of the song I performed at the Hive open mic week 202 with the title Hi, Little City of Bethlehem from the congregation song number 94. I chose this song because I think it fits this week's theme "Telling a Story" which was voted on by @henzeru.

I was reminded of the city of Bethlehem because this week we have the theme of a story, the city of Bethlehem is a place that is always mentioned in the Bible, this city will continue to be remembered because there are many stories about the Lord Jesus there.

Luke 2:4-5
Likewise, Joseph went from the city of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem, - because he came from the family and descendants of David - in order to be registered together with Mary, his betrothed, who was pregnant.

Lirik Indonesia

1. Hai kota kecil Betlehem, betapa kau senyap;
   bintang di langit cemerlang melihat kau lelap.
   Namun di lorong g'lapmu bersinar T'rang baka:
   Harapanmu dan doamu kini terkabullah.

2. Sebab bagimu lahir Mesias, Tuhanmu;
   malaikatlah penjagaNya di malam yang teduh.
   Hai bintang-bintang fajar, b'ritakan Kabar Baik:
   Sejahtera di dunia! Segala puji naik!

English Lyrics

1. O little town of Bethlehem, how silent you are;
   the stars in the sky are bright to see you asleep.
   But in your dark hall shines T'rang baka:
   Your hopes and prayers have now been answered.

2. For unto you was born the Messiah, your God;
   angels are His guardians in the dark night.
   O morning stars, proclaim the Good News:
   Prosperity in the world! Praise be to you!
