Mary's Boy Child

Each year, there seems to be a different Christmas song that really moves me. This year, I am just loving "Mary's Boy Child" - it is such a fun song, and then you listen to, or look at the lyrics, you appreciate it on an even deeper level. The song that plays on the 24/7 Christmas music radio stations is apparently very difficult to find as it was sung by a popular disco singer in the 70's. That is where these lyrics came from. However, you can find it on youtube (I tried to make a link, but it is just not cooperating) and if you want to download a very similar version, you can find it on i-tunes sung by "The Jingle Belles". Enjoy!


Title :Boney M. - Mary's Boy Child (oh My Lord)
This is lyrics from www.lyrics007.com


Mary's boy child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day
and man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day

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 King was born today
and man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day

Mary's Boy Child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day.

While shepherds watched their flocks by night they see a bright new shinig star
They hear a choir sing a song the music seemed to come from afar.

Hark now hear the angels sing a King was born today
and man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day

hm hm
...

For a moment the world was aglow
all the bells rang out
there were tears of joy and laughter
people shouted let ev'ryone know
there is hope for all to find peace.

Now Joseph and his wife Mary came to Bethlehem that night
they found no place to bear her child not a single room was in sight
and then they found a little nook in a stable all forlorn
and in a manger cold and dark Mary's little boy was born

Hark now hear the angels sing a King was born today
and man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day

Mary's Boy Child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day.

For a moment the world was aglow....
...

Oh my Lord you send your son to save us
Oh my Lord your very self you gave us
Oh my Lord that sin may not enslave us
and love may reign once more.

Oh my Lord when in the crib they found him
Oh my lord a golden halo crowned him
Oh my Lord they gathered all around him
to see him and adore.

Oh my Lord with the child's adoration
Oh my Lord there came great jubilation
Oh my Lord and full of admiration
they realized what they had (until the sun falls from the sky)

Oh my Lord (well praise the Lord) they had just begun to doubt you
Oh my Lord (he is the truth forever) what did they know about you.

Oh my Lord (so praise the Lord) but they were lost without you
They needed you so bad (his light is shinig on us)

Oh my Lord (oh my Lord so praise the Lord) with the child's adoration
Lord (oh my Lord he is a persontion).
There came great jubilation
Oh my Lord (so praise the Lord)
and full of admiration
they realized what they had (until the sun falls from the sky)
He just can't go wrong.
