Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say,
Mary's Boy Child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas day.
REFRAIN
Hark! now hear the angels sing a King was born today,
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas day.
Trumpet sound and angels sing, listen to what they say
that man will live for evermore, because of Christmas day.
VERSE 2
While shepherds watched their flocks by night, them see bright new shining star,
hear a choir sing, the music seemed to come from afar.
VERSE 3
Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, come to Bethlehem that night,
find no place to born that child, not a single room was in sight.
VERSE 4
By and by they find a little nook in a stable not forlorn,
in a manger cold and dark, Mary's little boy was born.
