| Once upon a Christmas morning
|
| There was a pretty little baby boy
|
| It seems like I remember sadness
|
| Mingling in the joy
|
| For Mary saw the future
|
| And the sadness it would bring
|
| And that’s when Mary started crying
|
| When she heard the angels sing
|
| Let’s make a baby king
|
| Let’s make him Lord of all
|
| Let’s give him everything
|
| Let’s make a baby king
|
| Now you remember little King David
|
| He’s the little baby’s kin
|
| He’s cousin to a man named John
|
| And I know you all remember him
|
| And John said, «Let's get ready
|
| The Herald Angels sing
|
| 'Cause this old world sure needs to know
|
| The good news that I bring»
|
| Let’s make a baby king
|
| Let’s make him Lord of all
|
| Let’s give him everything
|
| Let’s make a baby king
|
| Now we could use a revolution
|
| The world is turned upside down
|
| We need a new direction
|
| We’ve got to turn this whole thing around
|
| We need a Lord to guide us
|
| To teach us wrong and right
|
| And we need a lamb to lead us
|
| Into the land of light |
