A Long Time Ago In Bethlehem  So The Holy Bible Says  Mary boy child, Jesus Christ  Was born on Christamas-day  Listen hear the angels sing  A new king is born today  And man will live forever more  Because of Christamas-day  While shepherds watched their flocks by night  They see a bright new shining star  And then they hear a choir sing  The music seem to come from afar  Listen hear the angels sing  A new king is born today  And man will live forever more  Because of Christamas-day  When Joseph an he wife Mary  Came to Bethlehem that night  They find no place to born that child  Not a single room was in sight  Listen hear the angels sing  A new king born today  And man will live forever more  Because of Christamas-day  Then bye and bye they find a little 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 born today  And man will live forever more  Because of Christamas-day    these lyrics are last corrected by Raymond Eid
