long time ago in bethlehem
  so the holy bible say
  mary's boy child jesus christ
  was born on christmas day
  hark now hear the angels sing
  a new king born 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
    while shepherds watch their flock by night
  they see a bright new shining star
  then hear a choir sing
  the music seemed to come from afar
  now joseph and his wife mary
  come to bethleham that night
  then find no place to born the child
  not a single room was in sight
    hark now hear the angels sing
  a new king born 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
    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
    hark now hear the angels sing
  a new king born 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
  hark now hear the angels sing
  listen what they say
  that man will live forevermore
  because of christmas day
