Mary's Boychild Songtext

von Birthe Kjær

Long time ago in Bethlehem,
So the Holy Bible says
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas Day

Listen hear the angels sing
A new king's born today
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day

While shepherds watch their flocks by night
They saw a bright new shining star
They heard a choir from heaven sing
That seem to come from afar

Listen hear the angels sing
A new king's born today
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day

When 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

By and by they found a nook
In a stable all forlorn
And in a manger cold and dark,
Mary's little boy was born

Listen hear the angels sing
A new king's born today
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day

Listen hear the angels sing
A new king's born today
Man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day
