Luyện nghe bài hát The First Christmas (1959 Version)

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

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

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

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

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

Come, come, to the manger,
Children sing and 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,
Where the are tending their flock.

All at the Shepherds are frightened,
be frightened too,
Because a light suddenly shines in the sky!
the animals are hushed and still,
But then you hear the of an Angel of the Lord!
And no longer frightened,
For the Angel brings news,
News of a Saviour this day,
News of the Lord!

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

Well, we're with the Shepherds,
On the near Bethlehem.
We the Shepherds ask the Angel,
to find the Christ-child?
And the tells them to go to the manger.
And as leave the sky is filled with other Angels singing,
to God! And on Earth Peace, Goodwill, to Men!

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

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

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

We Three Kings of are,
Bearing gifts, we afar,
Field and fountain, and mountain,
yonder star!

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

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

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

This is why we celebrate Christmas,
We of Bethlehem,
We of the Virgin Mary,
We think of the three men,
And the of the Christ-child!
The Christmas!

Oh! Come let us Him,
the Lord!
