Once upon a Christmas far away in Bethlehem 
Mary being great with child had no place to lie down 
So Joseph found a stable in which Mary had her child 
Once upon a Christmas was the birth of Jesus Christ 
Once upon a Christmas in a manger far away 
A King was born His palace was a manger filled with hay 
His royal robe was swaddling cloth a halo was His crown 
Once upon a Christmas away in Bethlehem 

And all the world rejoiced because the King was born at last 
A savior had been promised now it had come to pass 
And the joyful news that He was born spread quickly far and wide 
Once upon a Christmas was the birth of Jesus Christ 

Once upon a Christmas from the Far East wise men came 
With gold and myrrh and frankincense to praise the newborn King 
And shepherds left their flocks and came to see and worship Him 
Once upon a Christmas away in Bethlehem 

And all the world rejoiced because the King was born at last 
A savior had been promised now it had come to pass 
And the joyful news that He was born spread quickly far and wide 
Once upon a Christmas was the birth of Jesus Christ
