FLong time ago in FBethlehem, so the GHoly Bible Fsay, FMary's boy child FJesus Christ, was Fborn on G7Christmas FDay.
Chorus:
FHark, now Fhear the G7angels Fsing, a Amnew king Fborn Gtoday, and Fman will G/Dlive C/Efor Fevermore, beFcause of G7Christmas Fday.
FTrumpets Fsound and G7angels Fsing, Amlisten to Fwhat they Gsay, that Fman will G/Dlive for Fevermore, beFcause of G7Christmas FDay.
While shepherds watch their flocks by night, them see a bright new shining star, them hear a choir sing, the music seemed to come from afar. Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, come to Bethlehem that night, them find no place to born the child, not a single room was in sight. By and by they find a little nook in a stable all forlorn, and in a manger cold and dark, Mary's little boy was born. Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say, Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.
