| Long Time Ago |
| |
| Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ |
| Was born on Christmas day |
| And men will live for evermore |
| Because of Christmas day |
| |
| Long time ago in Bethlehem |
| So the Holy Bibly say |
| 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 for evermore |
| Because of Christmas day |
| |
| Trumpets sound and angels sing |
| Listen to what they say |
| Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ |
| Was born on Christmas day |
| |
| While shepherds watched their flocks by night |
| They see a bright new shining star |
| They hear a choir sing a song |
| The music seems to come from afar |
| |
| For a moment the world was aglow |
| And all the bells rang out all the tears |
| And joy and laughter |
| People shouted let everyone know |
| That there is hope for all to find peace |
| |
| Now Joseph and his wife Mary |
| Came to Bethlehem that night |
| They found no place to lay their child |
| Not a single room was in sight |
| |
| 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 |
| |
| 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, when in the crib they found Him |
| Oh my Lord, a golden halo around Him |
| Oh my Lord, they gathered all around Him |
| To see Him adore |
| |
