Once Upon a Christmas

Once upon a Christmas, far away in Bethlehem Mary, being great with child, had no place to lie down So Joseph found a stable, in which Mary had her child Once upon a Christmas, was the birth of Jesus Christ Once upon a Christmas in a manger far away A king was born his palace was a manger filled with hay His royal robe was swaddling cloth, a halo was his crown Once upon a Christmas away in Bethlehem And all the world rejoiced because the king was born at last A savior had been promised now it had come to pass And the joyful news that he was born spread quickly far and wide Once upon a Christmas was the birth of Jesus Christ Once upon a Christmas, from the far east wise men came With gold and myrrh and frankincense to praise the newborn king And shepherds left their flocks and came to see and worship him Once upon a Christmas, away in Bethlehem And all the world rejoiced because the king was born at last A savior had been promised now it had come to pass And the joyful news that he was born spread quickly far and wide Once upon a Christmas and the birth of Jesus Christ All the world rejoiced because the king was born at last A savior had been promised now it had come to pass And the joyful news that he was born spread quickly far and wide Once upon a Christmas, was the birth of Jesus Christ Once upon a Christmas, far away in Bethlehem
