Boney M. - Mary's Boy Child/Oh My Lord

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 said
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 shining 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 everyone know
There is hope for all to find peace

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
All the bells rang out
There were tears of joy and laughter
People shouted let everyone know
There is hope for all to find peace

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
They had begun to doubt you
Oh my Lord
What did they know about you
Oh my Lord
But they were lost without You
They needed You so bad

Oh my Lord (oh my Lord)
With the child's adoration
Oh my Lord (oh my Lord)
There came great jubilation
Oh my Lord
And full of admiration
They realized what they had

Oh my Lord (oh my Lord)
You sent your son to save us
Oh my Lord (oh my Lord)
Your very self you gave us
Oh my Lord
That sin may not enslave us
And love may reign once more
