Mary had a little lamb

One holy morning

'Neath the star of Bethlehem

A brand new day was forming

Guided by the shining light

And the angel's voice

Wise men traveled through the night

To see the baby boy



'Cause Mary had a little lamb

King of kings and son of man

Mary had a little lamb of God



They gathered 'round to see the lamb

In the manger sleeping

Such a humble throne for Him

The promise God was keeping

There the shepards bowed their heads

Among the cattle lowing

The first ever Christmas gift

Was wrapped in swaddling clothes



Mary had a little lamb

King of kings and son of man

Mary had a little lamb of God



For the world a sacrifice

Mary did give birth

The way she held him in her arms

Is how He holds the earth



Mary had a little lamb

King of kings and son of man

Mary had a little lamb of God



Mary had a little lamb

King of kings and son of man

Mary had a little lamb of God



Oh, Mary had a little lamb

King of kings and son of man

Mary had a little lamb of God
