Marty Robbins - Many Christmases Ago lyrics

rate me

There were shepherds in the field that night<br />

And thay saw a star that shone so bright<br />

And to them the angel's message was told<br />

Many, many Christmases ago<br />

<br />

And they heard good tidings of great joy<br />

(And they heard good tidings of great joy)<br />

T'was the birthday of a baby boy<br />

(T'was the birthday of a baby boy)<br />

Who was born to save our very souls<br />

Many, many Christmases ago<br />

<br />

Come, oh come, and greet the newborn child<br />

Born of mother Mary, so gentle and mild<br />

<br />

In our hearts the child is born again<br />

And he offers peace, good will to men<br />

For the message lives, the shepherds were told<br />

Many, many Christmases ago<br />

<br />

Let us lay our gifts before the king<br />

(Let us lay our gifts before the king)<br />

And in joyful voices, let us sing<br />

(And in joyful voices, let us sing)<br />

For to us the angel's message is told<br />

As it was so many Christmases ago<br />

<br />

Come, oh come, and greet the newborn child<br />

Born of mother Mary, so gentle and mild<br />

<br />

Many, many Christmases ago
