In the little village of Bethlehem

There lay a child one day

And the sky was bright

With a holy light

O'er the place where Jesus lay.


Alleluia

O how the angels sang!

Alleluia

How it rang!

And the sky was bright

With a holy light

'Twas the birthday of a King.


Humble birthplace

But O

How much God gave to us that day!

From the manger bed what a path has led

What a perfect holy way.


Alleluia

O how the angels sang!

Alleluia

How it rang!

And the sky was bright

With a Holy light

'Twas the birthday of a King
