Lyrics sample

Many, many years ago

Was the story often told,

About a baby King and the promising

Of a world that’s filled with love.

Many years have come and gone

But the promise still lives on,

For we all remember the baby born

In a lowly cattle stall,

In a manger filled with straw.

The bells ring out for Christmas!

The bells ring out for Christmas!

The chors sing, the angels bring

Good news from God in all His glory!
