Lyrics

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 new King's born today And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day Trumpets sound and angels sing, listen what they say That man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day While Shepherds watched their flock by night, they see a bright new star Then hear a choir of angels sing, music seems to come from a far Now Joseph and his wife Mary come to Bethlehem that night They find no place to lay the child, not a single room was in sight Hark now hear the angels sing a new King's born today And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day Trumpets sound and angels sing, listen what they say That man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day By and by they found a little nook in a stable so forlorn In a manger there cold and dark, Mary's little boy was born Hark now hear the angels sing a new King's born today And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day Trumpets sound and angels sing, listen what they say That man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
