Mary's Boy Child

Mary's Boy Child, Jesus Christ
was born on Christmas Day
And man will live for evermore, 
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

Shepherds watched their flocks by night,
they see a bright new shining star
they hear a choir sing a song,
the music seemed to come from afar

Now Joseph and his wife, Mary,
came to Bethlehem that night
they found no place to bear her 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

Hark, now hear the Angels sing, 
a King was born today
And man will live for evermore, 
because of Christmas Day
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, 
was born on Christmas Day

For a moment the world was aglow, 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"
