Mary's Boy Child (arr. J. Rutter) (玛丽的孩子（J. 拉特改编）)

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 new King born today, And 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. While shepherds watched their flocks by night, They see a bright new shining star, They heard a choir sing, The music seemed to come from afar. Now Joseph and his wife Mary Come to Bethlehem that night, They found no place to bear the child, Not a single room was in sight. Hark, now hear the angels sing . . . 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. 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 new King born today, And man will live for evermore, Because of Christmas Day.
