Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, Was born on Christmas Day And man will live for ever more Because of Christmas Day. Hark now hear the angels sing. A king was born today. And man will live for ever more Because of Christmas Day. Long time ago in Bethlehem, So the Holy Bible say, Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, Was born on Christmas Day. While shepherds watch their flocks by night And see a bright new shining star, They hear a choir sing a song A music seemed to come from afar.
