■ Long time ago in Bethlehem so the Holy Bible say ■
                 A                B7                E  
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day
         A    B7         E      C#m A           B7

And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
A              B7         E    C#m    A         B7 
Trumpets sound and angels sing listen what they say

                     A                 E        B7          E  
Then hear a choir of angels sing music seems to come from a far
                   A                 B7             E    
Now Joseph and his wife Mary come to Bethlehem that night
                   A                      E      B7          E    
They find no place to lay the child not a single room was in sight


[Chorus]
         A        B7     E      C#m A           B7

By and by they found a little nook in a stable so forlorn
                  A             E             B       E   
In a manger there cold and dark Mary's little boy was born
