A long time ago in Bethlehem So the Holy Bible say Mary's boy child Jesus Christ Was born on Christmas Day While Shepherds watched their flocks by night They saw a bright new shinging star And hear a choir from heaven sing The music seemed to come from a far Hark now hear the angels sing A new King born today That man will live for evermore Because of Christmas Day. (Mary's boy child, Mary's boy child Was born on christmas day) Now Joseph and his wife Mary Came to Bethlehem that night And in a stable cold and dark The boy was born of glorys light Hark now hear the angels sing A new King born today That man will live for evermore Because of Christmas Day. (Mary's boy child, Mary's boy child, Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ) Trumpets sound and angels sing Listen to what they say That man will live for evermore Because of Christmas Day Hark now hear the angels sing A new King born today That man will live for evermore Because of Christmas Day Trumpets sound and angels sing Listen to what they say That man will live for evermore Because of Christmas Day Happy Christmas Yes he was Mary's boy child was born on christmas day
