[00:38.79]Mary was the first of three
[00:41.29]Long black hair and sugar sweet
[00:43.30]
[00:44.67]Daddy's eyes and Momma's crooked smile
[00:47.05]
[00:51.11]She was barely seventeen
[00:52.73]
[00:53.80]Got a job keepin' dishes clean
[00:55.86]
[00:57.55]Planned to stay in this city for a while
[00:59.99]
[01:02.78]For a while
[01:03.52]
[01:10.21]Joseph ran a lumber yard
[01:12.03]
[01:13.28]About a mile from Olive park
[01:14.97]
[01:16.47]Quiet boy, he never had much to say
[01:19.15]
[01:21.21]It was love right from the start
[01:24.40]
[01:25.78]He bought a ring and won Mary's heart
[01:27.78]
[01:28.72]Had hopes for a home and kids someday
[01:31.34]
[01:34.15]Kids someday
[01:35.54]
[01:48.10]The angel scared her half to death
[01:49.85]
[01:50.73]She would've screamed but she lost her breath
[01:52.91]
[01:53.91]On a midnight there in the middle of May
[01:56.92]
[02:00.55]He said "Oh Mary, don't be afraid
[02:02.43]
[02:03.49]You'll bear a son that the Lord has made
[02:05.43]
[02:06.80]Name him Jesus, He'll light the way"
[02:09.62]
[02:38.45]She packed the clothes, he made the plans
[02:40.27]
[02:41.46]They had to go to Bethlehem
[02:43.46]
[02:45.75]But there was nowhere left to stay
[02:47.51]
[02:51.00]So in a barn she gave birth
[02:52.69]
[02:53.38]To the King of Kings, the Lord of Earth
[02:55.94]
[02:57.38]Just a little bitty thing sleeping on the hay
[03:00.58]
[03:02.21]Sleeping on the hay
[03:03.34]
[03:10.40]The story's too long to tell
[03:11.90]
[03:12.58]But He walked on water and lived through hell
[03:15.08]
[03:16.40]Killed on a cross and rose from the grave
[03:19.15]
[03:22.53]We got a King, they got a Son
[03:24.34]
[03:25.15]Mary and Joseph were the only ones
[03:27.15]
[03:29.40]There on that very first Christmas day
[03:31.90]
[03:35.42]There on that very first Christmas day
[03:39.84]
