O Little Town of Bethlehem, is a popular Christmas Carol that tells us how God sent Christ his epitome on earth. Jesus was sent on a chilly wintry night to Mary. In him God filled up the message of love and trust. Jesus alone can dispel all the darkness of the world and save us from the impending sins. When Jesus was born the entire world lay in darkness. Not a soul knew that the new king is born. Only a bright star shown in the east. O Little Town of Bethlehem also informs us that this guiding star brought three wise men from the east. They followed the star from far away lands to come and see the new king. It was one of these men who for the first time prophesied that one day this young baby will rule the world with his love and fortitude.
