While shepherds watch their flocks by night, them see a bright new shining star, them hear a choir sing, the music seemed to come from afar. Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, come to Bethlehem that night, them find no place to born the child, not a single room was in sight. By and by they find a little nook in a stable all forlorn, and in a manger cold and dark, Mary's little boy was born. Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say, Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.
