Lyrics Mary's Little Boy Child - Mahalia Jackson

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 for evermore
Because of Christmas Day
Shepherd watch their fock by night
They see a bright (new) shining star
They hear a choir sing
The musicseemed to come from afar
Now Joseph and his wife, Mary
Come to Bethlehem that night
They found no place to born the child
Not a single room in sight
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day
