The Brothers Four
Mary’s Little Boy Child
[Verse 1]
Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day

[Chorus]
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new King born today
And man will live forever more
Because of Christmas day

[Verse 2]
While shepherds watched their flock by night
They saw a bright new shining star
And hear a choir from heaven sing
The music came from afar

[Chorus]
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new King born today
And man will live forever more
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forever more
Because of Christmas day
[Verse 3]
Now Joseph and his wife Mary
Came to Bethlehem that night
They found no place to bare she child
Not a single room was in sight
By and by they found a little nook
In a stable all forlorn
And in a manger cold and dark
Mary's little boy was born

[Chorus]
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new King born today
And man will live forever more
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forever more
Because of Christmas day
