Long Time Ago in Bethlehem

The song describes the biblical story of the birth of Jesus Christ in Bethlehem. It tells of Mary and Joseph traveling to Bethlehem where Mary gives birth to Jesus in a stable, as there was no room available in the inn. As Mary's baby boy, Jesus, is born, angels sing to announce the birth of the king to shepherds watching their flocks. The birth of Jesus means that man will live forever because of Christmas Day.

  • Mary's Boy Child Lyrics

"Mary's Boy Child"

(performed with Gloria Estefan)

Long time ago in Bethlehem


So the Holy Bible say
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.

While shepherds watched their flock by


night,
They saw a bright new shining star
they hear a choir sing 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.

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.

Hark now hear the angels sing,


A king was born today,
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day

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.

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"
(performed with Gloria Estefan)
