1.   Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say,  
                      C           Am         G         D       G  
    Mary`s boychild,     Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.  

           C        D      G       Em       Am      D  
Hark now! Hear the angels sing, new King born today,  
     G               C     Am      G          D       G  
and man will live for evermore because of Christmas day. 
 

    G                                C        Am  
2.     While shepherds watched their flocks by night,  
                 D                  G  
    they see a bright new shining star.  
                       C          Am  
    They hear a choir     sing a song,   
               G         D          G  
    the music seemed to come from afar.   

Chorus  

    G                      C      Am           D              G  
3.     Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, come to Bethlehem that night.  
                             C             Am  
    They find no place to      bear their child,   
           G      D           G  
    not a single room was in sight.     

    G                         C      Am           D            G  
4.     By 'n' by they find a little nook, in a stable all forlorn, 
                       C             Am            G      D       G  
    And in a manger        cold and dark, Mary`s little boy child is born.  

 
           C        D      G     Em        Am        D  
Trumpets sound and angels sing! Listen to what they say,  
      G               C    Am      G          D       G  
that man will live forever more because of Christmas day.
