Marys Boychild Christmas Song

C                F     Dm          G          C
Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible says,
C                F     Dm          C       G         C
Mary`s boychild, Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.

CHORUS:
C         F        G      C       Am       Dm     G
Hark now! Hear the Angels sing, a King was born today,
    C                F    Dm     C        G         C
and man will live forever more because of Christmas Day.

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

CHORUS:

#3.
C                  F     Dm            G              C
Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, came to Bethlehem that night.
C                      F        Dm
They found no place to bear the child,
      C      G           C
not a single room was in sight.

CHORUS:

#4.
C                     F      Dm         G             C
And then they found a little nook, in a stable all forlorn.
C                F        Dm           C      G       C
And in a manger, cold and dark, Mary`s little boy was born.

CHORUS:

#5.
C        F         G      C      Am        Dm        G
Trumpets sound and Angels sing...listen to what they say,
G    C                F    Dm     C        G         C
that man will live forever more because of Christmas Day.
