Long time ago in Bethlehem

Long [C] time ago in [F] Bethlehem, 
So the [G] Holy Bible [C] say;
Mary's boy child [F] Jesus Christ 
Was [G7] born on Christmas [C] day.

Chorus
[C] Hark now [F] hear the [G7] angels [C] sing, 
A [Am] new [F] king born [G] today,
And [C] man will live [F] forever more, 
Be[G7]cause of Christmas [C] day.

[C] Trumpets [F] sound and the [G7] angels [C] sing,
[Am] Listen to [F] what they [G] say.
That [C] man will live [F] forever more, 
Be[G7]cause of Christmas [C] day.


While shepherds watched their flocks by night, 
Them see a bright new shining star,
Them hear a choir sing,
The music seemed to come from afar.

Chorus

Now Joseph and his wife Mary,
Come to Bethlehem that night,
Them find no place to lay she child,
Not a single room was in sight.

By and by they find a little nook,
In a stable all forlorn,
And in a manger cold and dark,
Mary's little boy was born.

Chorus

Long time ago in Bethlehem, 
So the Holy Bible say;
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ 
Was born on Christmas day.
