Yep, checks out with the "History" section of the church's website - Church of the Holy Trinity (Episcopal) on Rittenhouse Square.

Yeah, it's the church at the northwest corner of Rittenhouse Square, on the south side of Walnut. Apparently, a 19th-Century pastor was way into Bethlehem.

IN YOUR FACE, ALLENTOWN!

Interesting. Just last month, I took photos of the stained glass window of that church where Mary is holding baby Jesus. I don't typically photograph such things, so photographing the one that's depicting the birthplace, at the church where the guy who was a minister wrote the song about the birthplace, and then learning about it 2 days before Christmas...hmmm.
