Mary Had a baby, (Shout for joy)
Mary had a baby. (Shout for joy)
She had him in a stable, (Shout for joy)
She laid him in a manger. (Shout for joy)
She had him in a stable, (Shout for joy)
She laid him in a manger. (Shout for joy)
Well there were angels watching over him, (Shout for joy)
And named him King Jesus. (Shout for joy)

He was the Prince of Peace, (He was the Prince of Peace)
He was a mighty counselor, (He was a mighty counselor)
King of kings, on Christmas, in the morning.
Wo Lord, shout for joy;
Oh Lord, shout for joy.
Oh Lord, shout for joy;
Oh Lord, shout for joy.

Now Herod heard the news
Herod heard the news
Well he sent some soldiers after 'em
But the soldiers couldn't find 'em
Well the soldiers couldn't find 'em
Because they ran away to Egypt
They ran away to Egypt
And there were angels watching over them

Well Mary rode a donkey
And Joseph walked beside her
Well there were angels watching over them
They named him King Jesus
Oh Mary had a baby
She laid him in a stable
She laid him in a manger
She named him King Jesus
