Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

In the little village of Bethlehem

There lay a Child one day

And the sky was bright with a holy light

O'er the place where Jesus lay.


Refrain:

Alleluia! O how the angels sang

Alleluia! How it rang!

And the sky was bright with a holy light

'Twas the birthday of a King.


O come let us adore Him 

O come let us adore him 

Chirst the Lord 


'Twas a humble birthplace, but O how much

God gave to us that day

From the manger bed what a path has led

What a perfect, holy way.


Refrain:

Alleluia! O how the angels sang

Alleluia! How it rang!

And the sky was bright with a holy light

'Twas the birthday of a King.


Alleluia! O how the angels sang

Alleluia! How it rang!

And the sky was bright with a holy light

'Twas the birthday of a King.
