A Child Is Born

[Verse 1]

As I was walkin' down the road to Bethlehem one night

I looked up to the sky and there I saw a wondrous sight

A star was shining brighter than I'd ever seen before

And a host of angels sang to me, never heard a song so pure

They said, "Don't be afraid, we bring good news to all the world

With great tidings of joy for every boy and every girl"

[Chorus]

A child is born

On this holy night

And all the angels sing of the joy he brings with a star so bright

So come to see

Mary's sweet baby

And let our praises ring to the newborn king while he sleeps so peacefully

So peacefully

Oh yeah

[Verse 2]

As I went down into the town to see what I could see

Three mighty kings with golden rings came ridin' up to me

They said they seek the child who was born beneath the star

Of all the kings this one would be the mightiest by far

So wake up everybody, 'cause the blessed day has come

And ring the bell so we can tell the news to everyone

[Chorus]

A child is born

On this holy night

And all the angels sing of the joy he brings with a star so bright

So come to see

Mary's sweet baby

And let our praises ring to the newborn king while he sleeps so peacefully

So peacefully

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah....

[Bridge]

So wake up everybody, 'cause the blessed day has come

And ring the bell so we can tell the news to everyone

[Chorus]

A child is born

On this holy night

And all the angels sing of the joy he brings with a star so bright

So come to see

Mary's sweet baby

And let our praises ring to the newborn king while he sleeps so peacefully

So peacefully

Oh yeah
