Mary's Boy Child (with Helmut Lotti) - Cliff Richard, Helmut Lotti

A long time ago in Bethlehem

So the Holy Bible say

Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ

Was born on Christmas Day

While Shepherds watched their flocks by night

They saw a bright new shining star

And hear a choir from heaven sing

The music seemed to come from a far

Hark now hear the angels sing

A new King born today

That man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas Day

(Mary's boy child, Mary’s boy child

Was born on Christmas day)

Now Joseph and his wife Mary

Came to Bethlehem that night

And in a stable cold and dark

The boy was born of glorious light

Hark now hear the angels sing

A new King born today

That man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas Day

(Mary's boy child, Mary’s boy child

Mary’s boy child, Jesus Christ)

Trumpets sound and angels sing

Listen to what they say

That man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas Day

Hark now hear the angels sing

A new King born today

That man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas Day

Trumpets sound and angels sing

Listen to what they say

That man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas Day

Happy Christmas

Yes he was

Mary’s boy child was born on Christmas Day
