Long time ago in Bethlehem, So the Holy Bible said Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ, Was born on Christmas day Hark now hear the angels sing, A new king born today And man will live forevermore Because of Christmas day Trumpets sound and angels sing, Listen to what they say That Man will live forevermore Because of Christmas day While shepherds watched their flocks by night, They see a bright new shining star They hear a choir sing a song, The music seemed to come from afar Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, Came to Bethlehem that night They found no place to bear the child, Not a single room was in sight Hark now hear the angels sing, A new king born today And man will live forevermore Because of Christmas day Trumpets sound and angels sing, Listen to what they say And Man will live forevermore 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 child was born Long time ago in Bethlehem, So the Holy Bible said Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ, Was born on Christmas day Hark now hear the angels sing, A new king born today And man will live forevermore Because of Christmas day Trumpets sound and angels sing, Listen to what they say That Man will live forevermore Because of Christmas day That Man will live forevermore Because of Christmas day
