BORN, BORN IN BETHLEHEM

BORN, BORN IN BETHLEHEM Mary had a baby, a-oh, my Lord. Born, born in Bethlehem.

The hay is his pillow, the manger his bed. The beasts stand in wonder to gaze on his head, yet there where he lies, he’s so weak and so poor. Come shepherds and wise men to kneel at his door.

Mary had a baby, a-oh, my Lord. Born, born in Bethlehem.

The glory surrounds them with angels on high, and “Peace upon earth!” heavenly voices reply. Then come, little children, and hear what they say, that gladdened the world on that first Christmas day.

Mary had a baby, a-oh, my Lord. Born, born in Bethlehem. Mary had a baby, a-oh, my Lord. Born, born in Bethlehem. Yes, he was born in Bethlehem. Born, born in Bethlehem.
