Judy Garland

The Birthday Of A King

Judy Garland


In the little village 
Of Bethlehem
There lay 
A child one day
And the sky was bright
With a holy light
O'er the place 
Where Jesus lay

Alleluia
O how the angels sang
Alleluia
How it rang
And the sky was bright
With a holy light
'Twas the birthday 
Of a King

Humble birthplace
But O
How much God gave 
To us that day
From the manger bed 
What a path has led
What a perfect holy way

Alleluia
O how the angels sang
Alleluia
How it rang
And the sky was bright
With a Holy light
'Twas the birthday 
Of a King
