Long time ago in Bethlehem
|
So the Holy Nible say
|
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 what they say
|
That man will live forevermore
|
Because of Christmas day
|
While shepherds watch
|
their flock by night
|
They see a bright new
|
shining star
|
Then hear a choir sing
|
The music seemed
|
to come from afar
|
Now Joseph and his wife Mary
|
Come to Bethlehem that night
|
Then find no place
|
to born 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 what they say
|
That man will live forevermore
|
Because of Christmas day
|
<Interlude>
|
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
|
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 what they say
|
That man will live forevermore
|
Because of Christmas day
|
Hark now hear the angels sing
|
Listen what they say
|
That man will live forever
|
Because of Christmas day
|
Because of Christmas day
|
Listen what they say
|
That man will live forevermore
|
Because of Christmas day
|
I can hear what they say
|
We are gonna live forever
|
Because of Christmas day
|
