Long Time Ago in Bethlehem

 G C 
Long time ago in Bethlehem, 
D G 
so the Holy Bible say, 
G C 
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, 
G D G 
was born on Christmas Day. 
Chorus: 
G C D G 
Hark, now hear the angels sing, 
Em C D 
a new king born today, and 
G D C 
man will live for evermore, 
G D G 

because of Christmas day. 


G C D G 
Trumpets sound and angels sing, 
Em C D 
listen to what they say, that 
G D C 
man will live for evermore, 
G D G 
because of Christmas Day. 
While shepherds watch their flocks by night, 
them see a bright shining star, 
them hear a choir sing that night, 
the music come from afar. 


Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, 
come to Bethlehem that night, 
them find no place to born the child, 
not a single room was in sight. 


By and by they find a nook, 
in a stable all forlorn, 
and in a manger cold and dark, 
the little baby was born.
