lyrics

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:
“New King’s born today
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day!”

2 While shepherds watched their flocks by night
They saw a bright new shining star
And heard a choir from heaven sing
The music came from afar

3 Now Joseph and his wife Mary
Came to Bethlehem that night.
They found no place to bear her Child,
Not a single room was in sight.

4 By and by they found a little nook
In a stable all forlorn.
And in a manger cold and dark
Mary’s little Boy/Child was born

Refrain 2
Trumpets sound and angels sing,
Listen to what they say!
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas Day!

Written in 1956 by Jester Hairston
Arranged by Paul Tobey
