Long time ago in Bethlehem So the Holy Bible says 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 for evermore Because of Christmas Day While shepherds watch their flocks by night They see a brand new shining star They hear a choir sing a song The music seemed to come from afar Now Josef and his wife Mary They come to Bethlehem that night They have no room to bear the child Not a single room was inside Hark, now hear the angels sing A new king born today And man will live for evermore Because of Christmas Day ♪ Passing by they found 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 for evermore Because of Christmas Day Trumpets sound, an angel sing Listen to what they say And man will live for evermore Because of Christmas Day This Christmas Day, yeah
