Luyện nghe bài hát The First Christmas (1959 Version)

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

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

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

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

Now I you something was gonna happen, and it did!
A baby boy is to Mary and Joseph,
they call Jesus!
They have no baby's crib, so Mary puts 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 on this day!

is asleep in the manger,
So tiptoe out to the hillside near Bethlehem,
Where the Shepherds are tending flock.

All at the Shepherds are frightened,
be frightened 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 certain Shepherds,
In fields as lay, in fields where they,
Lay their sheep,
On a cold night, that was so deep!
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel!
is the King of Israel!

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

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

Oh! all ye faithful,
and triumphant!
Oh Come ye, Oh ye, to Bethlehem!
and behold Him,
Born the of Angels,
Oh! Come let us 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 twinkling in the
Far away, three men are at that star just as we are!
They're on camels,
And they're using the as a guide to lead them to the Christ-child.
Who are three men who follow the star?

We Kings of Orient are,
gifts, we traverse afar,
Field and fountain, and mountain,
Following star!

Yes, the three men on the 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 on their knees to worship Him,
And now, a great peace on the night,
For it is the Night!

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

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

Oh! let us adore Him,
the Lord!
