Mary's Boy Child
Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new King born today
And we may live forever more
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and Angels sing
Listen to what they say
That we may live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day
While shepherds watched their flock by night
And see a bright new shining star
And hear a choir sing
The music seem to come from afar
Now Joseph and his wife Mary
Come to Bethlehem that night
And find no place to borne she child
Not a single room was in sight
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new King born today
And we may live forever more
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and Angels sing
Listen to what they say
That we may live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day
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
Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new King born today
And we may live forever more
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and Angels sing
Listen to what they say
That we may live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day
Yes we may live for evermore
Be-cause of Christ-mas Day
