Long time ago in Bethlehem, |
|
|
Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ |
|
Was born on Christmas day. |
|
|
|
Hark now hear the angels sing, |
|
|
|
And man will live forever more, |
|
|
Because of Christmas day. |
|
|
|
Trumpets sound and the angels sing, |
|
|
|
That man will live forever more, |
|
|
Because of Christmas day. |
|
|
|
While shepherds watched their flocks by night, |
|
Them see a bright new shining star, |
|
|
The music seemed to come from afar. |
|
|
|
Hark now hear the angels sing, |
|
|
|
And man will live forever more, |
|
|
Because of Christmas day. |
|
|
Now Joseph and his wife Mary, |
|
Come to Bethlehem that night, |
|
Them find no place to lay she child, |
|
Not a single room was in sight. |
|
|
By and by they find a little nook, |
|
|
And in a manger cold and dark, |
|
Mary's little boy was born. |
|
|
|
Hark now hear the angels sing, |
|
|
|
And man will live forever more, |
|
|
Because of Christmas day. |
|
|
Long time ago in Bethlehem, |
|
|
Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ |
|
Was born on Christmas day. |
