Once upon a Christmas morning There was a pretty little baby boy It seems like I remember sadness Mingling in the joy For Mary saw the future And the sadness it would bring And that's when Mary started crying When she heard the angels sing [Chorus] Let's make a baby king Let's make him Lord of all Let's give him everything Let's make a baby king Now, you remember little King David He's the little baby's kin He's cousin to the man named John And I know you all remember him And John said, "Let's get ready!" The herald angels sing 'Cause this old world needs to know The good news that I bring Let's make a baby king Let's make him Lord of all Let's give him everything Let's make a baby king Now we could use a revolution The world is turned upside down We need a new direction We've got to turn this whole thing around And we need a Lord to guide us Teach us wrong and right And we need a lamb to lead us Into the land of light
