Long time ago in Bethlehem So the Holy Bible say 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 forevermore Because of Christmas day Trumpets sound and the angels sing Listen to what they say That man will live forevermore Because of Christmas day While shepherds watch their flocks by night They see a bright new shining star They hear a choir sing The music seemed to come from afar Now Joseph and his wife Mary Came to Bethlehem that night They found no place to lay the child Not a single room was in sight Hark, now hear the angels sing A new King born today And man will live forevermore Because of Christmas day Trumpets sound and the angels sing Listen what they say That man will live forevermore Because of Christmas day By and by, they find a little nook In a stable so forlorn And in a manger, cold and dark Mary's little child was born A long time ago in Bethlehem So the Holy Bible say That 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 forever more Because of Christmas day Trumpets sound and the angels sing Listen to what they say That man will live forevermore Because of Christmas day
