Which is Your Favorite Christmas Carol?

I had come back from my Kota Kinabalu trip yesterday evening. No, I am so not going to talk about my KK trip just yet, neither do I want to share my travel photos here… because of Christmas Day!

Which is your favorite Christmas carol? One of my favorites is Mary’s Boy Child. Mary’s Boy Child was written by Jester Hairston in 1956 and was first recorded by Harry Belafonte in the same year.

Mary’s Boychild

Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible say
Mary’s boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new King born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen to what they say
That Man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day

While shepherds watch their flock by night
Then see a bright new shining star
Then hear a choir sing
Her music seemed to come from afar

Now, Joseph and his wife, Mary
Come to Bethlehem that night
Then find no place to born she child
Not a single room was in sight

Hark, now hear the angels singing
A new King born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen to what they say
That Man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day

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
Hark, now hear the angels sing
A new King born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen to what they say
That Man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
