While shepherds watch their flocks by night,

they see a bright new shining star. 
                  C      Am

Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, came to Bethlehem that night. 
G                      C        Am

not a single room was in sight.

G                C        Am           G      D       G 
And in a manger, cold and dark, Mary`s little boy was born.

G                C     Am          D          G 
Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible says,
