Medley
M.Gregor Lyrics

Mary's Boy Child Jesus Christ
The newborn baby, who is Mary's son and also the child of Jesus Christ, is being celebrated through the song.

Was born on Christmas day
The aforementioned child was born on the day of Christmas, which is a time of global festivity.

And Man will live for evermore
The existence of this child signifies everlasting life for humanity.

Because of Christmas day
The true essence of Christmas day, and what it stands for, heralds the gift of eternal life.

Long time ago in Bethlehem
The location where this child was born was Bethlehem, a long time ago in history.

So the Holy Bible said
The Biblical account verifies the place and time of the birth.

Hark now hear the Angels sing
This line is an invitation to listen to the song the angels are singing to commemorate the birth.

A King was born today
The child born in Bethlehem on this day is not only a baby, but also a King.

While shepherds watch their flock by night
The shepherds were looking after their sheep at night when they saw an unusual star that led them to where the child was born.

They see a bright new shining star
The bright and shining star was the object that caught the attention of the shepherds.

They hear a choir sing a song
The shepherds also heard the music being sung by the choir.

The music seemed to come from a-far
The music from the choir sounded as though it was coming from a distant place.

Oh a moment still worth was a glow, all the bells rang out
The atmosphere was charged with excitement, and bells were ringing in celebration of the child's birth.

There were tears of joy and laughter, people shouted
The number of people feeling joy and happiness was overwhelming, and some expressed their emotions by shouting.

"Let everyone know, there is hope for all to find peace"
The event was seen as a symbol of hope that can lead to peace for everyone in the world.

And then they found a little nook
The search for a suitable place to birth the child led them to a small corner.

In a stable all forlorn
The stable was empty and deserted.

And in a manger cold and dark
An empty manger was there waiting to host the newborn child.

Mary's little Boy was born
It is reiterated that the child who was born is Mary's son.

Oh my Lord
An invocation to God.

You sent your Son to save us
This line reminds us that God sent his son to Earth to save humanity.

Your very self you gave us
Through his son, God gave humanity a glimpse of his true nature.

That sin may not enslave us
By sending his son, God frees humanity from the enslaving effects of sin.

And love may reign once more
The coming of the Child is seen as a way to restore love and peace among humans.

When in the crib they found Him
The child was found lying in his crib.

A golden halo crowned Him
The way light reflected off the child was very much like a golden halo.

They gathered all around Him
People converged around the child.

To see Him and adore
People paid homage to the child and sang his praises.

This day will live forever
The event of the child's birth will have a lasting impact and will be celebrated for eternity.

So praise the Lord
A call to worship God.

They had become to doubt you
Humanity had lost faith in God.

He is the truth forever
The coming of the child is seen as proof that God's truth endures forever.

What did they know about you?
The implication is that humans had underestimated God's love and power.

But they were lost without you
People lived without direction in a world without God.

They needed you so bad
The coming of the child proved to humanity how much they needed God in their lives.

His light is shining on us
The child's light illuminates humanity.

With the Child's adoration
There is vibrant devotion to the child.

He is a personation
The child's presence represents something far more significant than mere physical presence.

There came great jubilation
The atmosphere was one of excitement and joy.

That sin may not enslave us
The refrain is a reminder of how the child's arrival frees humanity from the effects of sin.
