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 king was born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day

While shepherds watch 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
Them find no place to born he child, not a single room was in sight

Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today
And man will live for evermore 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 was born

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 king was born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
