Mary’s Boy Child
[Intro]
Mm, mm-mm

[Verse 1]
Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day
While shepherds watched their flock by night
Then see a bright new shining star
They hear a choir singing now
Her music seemed to come from afar

[Chorus]
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new born King today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day

[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new born King today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day

[Bridge]
La-la, la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la-la, la

[Chorus]
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new born King today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Because of Christmas day
It was because of Christmas day

[Bridge]
La-la, la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la-la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la-la, la
