Mary’s Boy Child

Song composer: Jester Hairston
Lyrics author: Jester Hairston


F# 
Long time ago in Bethlehem, 
C# F# 
So the Holy Bible say;
Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ 
F# C#7 F# 
Was born on Christmas day.
           F# C#7 F# 
            Hark now hear the angels sing, 
           Ebm C# 
            new  king born today,
           F# F# Abm 
            And man will live forever more, 
           F# C#7 F# 
            Because of Christmas day.
           F# C#7 F# 
            Trumpets sound and the angels sing,
           Ebm C# 
            Listen to what they say.
           F# F# Abm 
            That man will live forever more, 
           F# C#7 F# 
            Because of Christmas day.
While shepherds watched their flocks by night, 
Them see a bright new shining star,
Them hear a choir sing,
The music seemed to come from afar.
           F# C#7 F# 
            Hark now hear the angels sing, 
           Ebm C# 
            new  king born today,
           F# F# Abm 
            And man will live forever more, 
           F# C#7 F# 
            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,
In a stable all forlorn,
And in a manger cold and dark,
Mary's little boy was born.
           F# C#7 F# 
            Hark now hear the angels sing, 
           Ebm C# 
            new  king born today,
           F# F# Abm 
            And man will live forever more, 
           F# C#7 F# 
            Because of Christmas day.
Long time ago in Bethlehem, 
So the Holy Bible say;
Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ 
Was born on Christmas day.
