Full Lyrics
Long time ago in Bethlehem,
the star was shining bright
to announce the birth of the newborn Prince of Peace.
In a stable, he was born.
there was glory all around.
as the Angels sung their new song to the King.
It was joy, joy, joy on that day.
The wonderful counsellor, Prince of Peace was born on Christmas day.
Christmas day, O what joy it brought to the world!
Christmas day, when the King of glory was born;
It was joy, great joy, great joy on that day,
the wonderful counsellor, Prince of peace was born on Christmas day.
While shepherds watched their flocks by night.
They were seated on the ground.
And the Angel of the Lord brought glory all around.
He said Peace be unto you, glad tidings of great joy,
I bring to you and all mankind
unto us, the news of joy is clear:
the wonderful counsellor, Prince of peace is here with us today.
Christmas day, O what joy it brought to the world.
Christmas day, when the King of glory was born;
it was joy, great joy, great joy on that day.
the wonderful counsellor, Prince of peace was born on Christmas day.
