LONG AGO 
IN BETHLEHEM 
SO THE HOLY BIBLE 

SAYS 
MARY'S BOY CHILD 
JESUS CHRIST 
WAS BORN 

ON CHRISTMAS DAY 
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 
HARK NOW HEAR 
THE ANGELS SING 

A NEW KING BORN 
TODAY 
AND MAN WILL LIVE 
FOREVERMORE 

BECAUSE OF 
CHRISTMAS DAY 
8 BAR 
INSTRUMENTAL 

BREAK 

JOSEPH AND HIS WIFE 
MARY 

CAME TO BETHLEHEM 
THAT NIGHT 
AND FOUND NO PLACE 
TO BEAR A CHILD 

NOT A SINGLE ROOM 
IN SIGHT 
BY AND BY 
THEY FOUND 

A LITTLE NOOK 
IN A STABLE FORLORN 
AND IN A MANGER 
COLD AND DARK 

MARY'S LITTLE 
BABY WAS BORN 
HARK NOW HEAR 
THE ANGELS SING 

A NEW KING BORN 
TODAY 
AND MAN WILL LIVE 
FOREVERMORE 

BECAUSE OF 
CHRISTMAS DAY 
TRUMPETS SOUND 
AND ANGELS SING 

LISTEN TO WHAT 
THEY SAY 
THAT MAN WILL LIVE 
FOREVERMORE 

BECAUSE OF 
CHRISTMAS DAY 
YES MAN WILL LIVE 
FOREVERMORE 

BECAUSE OF 
CHRISTMAS DAY
