HYMN Lyrics Text: Long Time Ago In Bethlehem | Christmas Song

1. Long time ago in Bethlehem

so the Holy Bible says.

Mary’s Boy Child Jesus Christ,

was born on Christmas Day.

Hark now hear the angels sing

A new king born today

And men will live Forevermore

Because of Christmas day

Trumpets sound and angels sing

A new king born today

And men will live forever more

Because of Christmas day

2. While shepherds watched

their flock by night,

they saw a bright new shining star

hey hearda choir sing a song.

The music seemed to come fhom atar,

3. Now Joseph and his wife Mary

came to Bethlehem that night

She found no place

to bear her child

not a single room was in sight

4. By and by they found a little nook

in a stable all forlorn

And in a manger cold and dark,

Mary’s little boy was born
