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
