Once Upon a Christmas

Once upon a Christmas, far away in Bethlehem
 Mary, being great with child, had no place to lie down
 So Joseph found a stable, in which Mary had her child
 Once upon a Christmas, was the birth of Jesus Christ
 Once upon a Christmas in a manger far away
 A king was born his palace was a manger filled with hay
 His royal robe was swaddling cloth, a halo was his crown
 Once upon a Christmas away in Bethlehem
 And all the world rejoiced because the king was born at last
 A savior had been promised now it had come to pass
 And the joyful news that he was born spread quickly far and wide
 Once upon a Christmas was the birth of Jesus Christ
 
 Once upon a Christmas, from the far east wise men came
 With gold and myrrh and frankincense to praise the newborn king
 And shepherds left their flocks and came to see and worship him
 Once upon a Christmas, away in Bethlehem
 And all the world rejoiced because the king was born at last
 A savior had been promised now it had come to pass
 And the joyful news that he was born spread quickly far and wide
 Once upon a Christmas and the birth of Jesus Christ
