Song Lyrics

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas Day
And then we'll live forever more
Because of Christmas Day

Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible said

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas Day

Hark now hear the angels sing
A king was born today
(And man will live forever more)
Because of Christmas Day

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas Day

While shepherds watch their flock by night
They see a bright new shining star

They hear a choir sing a song

The music seemed to come from afar

Hark, now hear the angels sing
A king was born today
(And man will live forever more)
Because of Christmas Day

For a moment the world was a glow, all the bells rang out
There were tears of joy and laughter

People shouted
"Let everyone know, there is hope for all to find peace"

And then they found a little nook
In a stable all forlorn

And in a manger cold and dark
Mary's little boy was born

Hark, now hear the angels sing
A king was born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas Day

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas Day

Oh my Lord
You sent your son to save us
Oh my Lord
Your very self you gave us
Oh my Lord
That sin may not enslave us
And love may reign once more

Oh my Lord (So praise the Lord)
They had become to doubt you
Oh my Lord (He is the truth forever)
What did they know about you
Oh my Lord (So praise the Lord)
But they were lost without you
They needed you so bad (His light is shining on us)

Oh my Lord (So praise the Lord)

With the child's adoration
Oh my Lord (He is a personation)
There came great jubilation
Oh my Lord (So praise the Lord)
And full of admiration
They realized what they had (Until the sun falls from the sky)

Oh my Lord (Oh praise the Lord)

You sent your son to save us
Oh my Lord (This day will live forever)
Your very self you gave us
Oh my Lord (So praise the Lord)
And full of admiration
They realized what they had (Until the sun falls from the sky)

Oh my Lord (So praise the Lord)
And full of admiration
They realized what they had (Until the sun falls from the sky)
