Author: William Smyth Babcock Mathews Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11083 First Line: Long ago on Christmas night Refrain First Line: Christ our king, Christ our king Lyrics: 1 Long ago on Christmas night,
Shepherds saw the heav’nly light,
Heard the song of angels bright,
Christ was born at Bethlehem.
Refrain:
Christ our king, Christ our king
Every voice His praise shall sing;
Jesus Christ our Lord and king,
Came that day to Bethlehem.
2 Quick to Bethlehem, they, to see
What the angels’ joy could be;
Lo! for love of you and me,
Christ was born at Bethlehem. [Refrain]
3 Come with them to sacred stall,
On our knees with wise men fall;
Savior, king and Lord of all,
Christ was born at Bethlehem. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Long ago on Christmas night]
Christ At Bethlehem
