Karen Waldrup - Mary's Very First Christmas

{Verse 1}
To a teenage girl from Galilee It was prophesied & mean to be
The Angel Gabriel brought the news
Don't be afraid of what I say to you
You'll bring forth the Holy One
Jesus Christ God’s only son
A virgin birth some won’t understand

{Chorus 1}
But the good news will spread throughout the land… It was
Mary's very first Christmas
There were cries of pain and tears of joy
When she gave birth to a baby boy
Who came into this World to save us
For her gift of pure unselfish love
Let us thank the Lord above
For Mary's... Mary’s…
For Mary’s very... first Christmas

{Verse 2}
This humble servant could only guеss Why she was chosen to be blеssed
When she praised our Lord’s holy name
This troubled World was forever changed
Now Let’s sing a birthday song
To a life we know goes on and on
Because he gave himself for you and me
We’ll forever celebrate the Prince of Peace… and

{Chorus 2}
But the good news will spread throughout the land… It was
Mary's very first Christmas
There were cries of pain and tears of joy
When she gave birth to a baby boy
Who came into this World to save us
For her gift of pure unselfish love
Let us thank the Lord above
For Mary's... Mary’s…
For Mary’s very... first Christmas

{Outro}
For her gift of pure unselfish love
Let us thank the Lord above
For Mary's... oh Mary’s…
For Mary’s very... first Christmas
For Mary's... oh Mary’s…
For Mary's... very first Christmas
