Once upon a |
|
Christmas, |
|
Far away in |
|
Bethlehem. |
|
Mary, being great with child, |
|
Had no place to lie down. |
|
So Joseph found a stable |
|
In which Mary had her child. |
|
Once upon a |
|
Christmas, |
|
Was the birth of |
|
Jesus Christ. |
|
Once upon a |
|
Christmas, |
|
In a manger far away, |
|
A King was born, his palace |
|
Was a manger filled with hay. |
|
His royal robes were swaddling cloths, |
|
A halo was |
|
His crown. |
|
Once upon a |
|
Christmas, |
|
Away in Bethlehem. |
|
And all the world rejoiced because |
|
The King was born, at last. |
|
A Savior had been promised, |
|
Now it had come to pass. |
|
And the joyful news that |
|
He was born |
|
Spread quickly far and wide, |
|
Once upon a |
|
Christmas, |
|
Was the birth of |
|
Jesus Christ. |
|
And all the world rejoiced because |
|
The King was born, at last. |
|
A Savior had been promised, |
|
Now it had come to pass. |
|
And the joyful news that |
|
He was born |
|
Spread quickly far and wide, |
|
Once upon a |
|
Christmas, |
|
Was the birth of |
|
Jesus Christ. |
|
Once upon a |
|
Christmas, |
|
From the Far |
|
East, wise men came, |
|
With gold, and myrrh, and frankinsence, |
|
To praise the newborn |
|
King. Shepherds left their flocks and came |
|
To see and worship |
|
Him. Once upon a |
|
Christmas, |
|
Away in Bethlehem. |
|
And all the world rejoiced because |
|
The King had come, at last. |
|
A Savior had been promised, |
|
Now it had come to pass. |
|
And the joyful news that |
|
He was born |
|
Spread quickly far and wide, |
