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's born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
Trumpets sound and the angel sing, listen to what they say
That man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
While shepherds watched their flocks by night
They see a bright new star
They hear a choir sing
The music seems to come from afar
Now Joseph and his wife Mary come to Bethlehem that night
They found no place to lay the child, not a single room was in sight
Hark now hear the angels sing, a new King's born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
Trumpets sound and the angel sing, listen to what they say
That man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
By and by they found a little nook in a stable all forlorned
And in a manger cold and dark Mary's little boy was born
A long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say
That Mary's boy child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day
Hark now hear the angels sing, a new King's born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
Trumpets sound and the angel sing, listen to what they say
That man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
