Mary's Boy Child

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.

And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.

Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible said,

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.

Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today,

And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.

While shepherds watch their flocks by night,

they see a bright new shining star,

they hear a choir sing a song, the music seemed to come from afar.

Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today,

And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.

For a moment the world was aglow, all the bells rang out

there were tears of joy and laughter, people shouted

"let everyone know, there is hope for all to find peace".

How Joseph and his wife Mary came to Bethlehem that night

they found no place to bear her child not a single room was in sight

And then they found a little nook in a stable all forlorn,

and in a manger cold and dark, Mary's little boy was born.

Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today,

And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.

For a moment the world was aglow, all the bells rang out

there were tears of joy and laughter, people shouted

"let everyone know, there is hope for all to find peace".

Oh My Lord

Oh my Lord

You sent your son to save us

Oh my Lord

Your very self you gave us

Oh my Lord

That sin may not enslave us

And love may reign once more

Oh my Lord

when in the crib they found Him

Oh my Lord

A golden halo crowned Him

Oh my Lord

They gathered all around Him

To see him and adore (this day will live forever)

Oh my Lord (so praise the Lord)

they had begun to doubt you

Oh my Lord (He is the truth forever)

what did they know about you?

Oh my Lord (so praise the Lord)

but they were lost without You

they needed You so bad (His light is shining on us)

Oh my Lord (so praise the Lord)

with the child's adoration

Oh my Lord (He is a personation)

there came great jubilation

Oh my Lord (so praise the Lord)

and full of admiration

they realized what they had (until the sun falls from the sky)

Oh my Lord (Oh praise the Lord)

You sent your son to save us

Oh my Lord (this day will live forever)

Your very self you gave us

Oh my Lord (so praise the Lord)...
