Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible said
Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ
Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible said
Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on 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

Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And men will live for evermore
Because of Christmas day

Now Joseph, and his wife Mary
Come to Bethlehem that night
Them find no place to born the child
Not a single room was in sight

By and by they find a little nook
In a stable all forlorn
And in manger cold and dark
Mary' s little boy was born
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And men 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

That man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas day
