Mary’s Little Boy Child

Jester Hairston

[Verse 1]
Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day

[Chorus]
Hark now, hear the angels sing, a new King born today
That man will live forevermore because of Christmas Day
Trumpets sound and angels sing, listen what they say
That man will live forevermore because of Christmas Day

[Verse 2]
While shepherds watched their flock by night, they see a bright new star
Then hear a choir of angels sing, music seems to come from afar
Now Joseph and his wife Mary come to Bethlehem that night
They found no place to lay the child, not a single room was in sight

[Chorus]
Hark now, hear the angels sing, a new King born today
That man will live forevermore because of Christmas Day
Trumpets sound and angels sing, listen what they say
That man will live forevermore because of Christmas Day

[Verse 3]
By and by they find a little nook in a stable all forlorned
And in a manger cold and dark, Mary's little boy was born

[Chorus]
Hark now, hear the angels sing, a new King born today
That man will live forevermore because of Christmas Day
Trumpets sound and angels sing, listen what they say
That man will live forevermore because of Christmas Day
