Mary's Boy Child/Oh My Lord (medley) Songtext
von Boney M.

Mary′s boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas Day
And man will live forevermore
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 forevermore
Because of Christmas Day
Mary′s boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas Day

While shepherds watch 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 forevermore
Because of 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"

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 forevermore
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 sent 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 (this day will live forever)

Oh, my Lord (so praise the Lord), they had become 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 shining on us all)

Oh, my Lord (oh, my Lord, so praise the Lord), with the child′s adoration
Oh, my Lord (oh, my Lord, there′s great jubilation), 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)

Oh, my Lord (oh, my Lord, oh, praise the Lord), You sent Your son to save us
Oh, my Lord (oh, my Lord, this day will live forever), Your very self You gave us
Oh, my Lord (so praise the Lord), that sin may not enslave us
