Luyện nghe bài hát The First Christmas (1959 Version)

This is Perry . . .
And I'd like to you the most wonderful, the most beautiful,
The most exciting story in the world,
The Story of the Christmas!

Now suppose you make believe is many, many years ago,
A long time you were born!
standing on a hillside, near a little town in Palestine,
Do you see the man in the distance, walking slowly, a donkey?
His is Joseph!
is sitting on the back of the donkey,
And her is Mary!
They've come a long, way,
And they're for a little town near the hillside,
On which standing!
Something very special happen in this little town tonight!
For is the little town of Bethlehem!

Oh town of Bethlehem,
How we see thee lie,
thy deep and dreamless sleep,
The stars go by!
Yet in thy streets shineth,
The light!
The and fears of all the years,
Are met in tonight!

follow Joseph and Mary into the town of Bethlehem,
It's getting and all of the rooms at the Inn are taken,
But the kindly Innkeeper them
They could spend the at a stable nearby!

Now I told you something was happen, and it did!
A baby boy is to Mary and Joseph,
Whom they Jesus!
They have no crib, so Mary puts little Jesus to sleep,
In the sweet hay of a manger!

Come, come, to the manger,
sing and asleep on the hay,
Sing, sing, of Angels,
Little Lord Jesus is born on day!

is asleep in the manger,
So let's tiptoe out to the near Bethlehem,
the Shepherds are tending their flock.

All at once the are frightened,
You'd be too,
Because a great suddenly shines in the sky!
Even the animals are and still,
But then you hear the of an Angel of the Lord!
And you're no frightened,
For the brings good news,
News of a Saviour this day,
News of the Lord!

The First Noel! the did say,
Was to poor Shepherds,
In fields as they lay, in where they,
Lay keeping sheep,
On a cold night, that was so deep!
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel!
Born is the of Israel!

Well, still with the Shepherds,
On the hillside Bethlehem.
We the Shepherds ask the Angel,
Where to the Christ-child?
And the tells them to go to the manger.
And as they leave the sky is filled with Angels singing,
Glory to God! And on Peace, Goodwill, to Men!

The hurry to the manger,
Fall on knees before the baby,
And they him!
For He is the Lord!

Oh! all ye faithful,
and triumphant!
Oh ye, Oh Come ye, to Bethlehem!
and behold Him,
Born the of Angels,
Oh! let us adore Him,
Oh! Come let us Him,
Oh! Come let us Him,
the Lord!

And now, up into the sky!
Do you see that bright star twinkling in the
Far away, three men are looking at that just as we are!
They're on camels,
And they're using the star as a to lead them to the Christ-child.
Who are three men who follow the star?

We Kings of Orient are,
Bearing gifts, we afar,
and fountain, moor and mountain,
Following star!

Yes, the three men on the camels are the three men,
The new star guides them to Bethlehem,
To a little lying in a manger!
There the three men present gifts to the Christ-child,
The first Christmas gifts given to anyone,
A of gold, of frankincense, and of Mir!

And they too fall on knees to worship Him,
And now, a great settles on the night,
For it is the Night!

night, holy night,
All is calm, all is bright,
'Round yon virgin and child,
Holy so tender and mild!
Sleep in peace,
in heavenly peace!

This is why when we Christmas,
We of Bethlehem,
We think of the Mary,
We think of the wise men,
And the of the Christ-child!
The Christmas!

Oh! Come let us Him,
the Lord!
