INTRO

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day


OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
*Long time ago in Bethlehem so the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child Jesus Chris was born on Christmas day

Allemande left and now weave the ring
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today
Swing, promenade
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas day

ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Now Joseph and his wife Mary came to Bethlehem that night
They found no place to bear her child, not a single room was in sight


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression

Heads (sides) promenade halfway around
Walk in and pass the ocean there
Extend, swing thru tonight, the boys run right
Ferris wheel around
You pass thru, touch 1/4 here, scoot back one time
Swing your corner girl and promenade
**And man will live for evermore because of Christmas day

ALTERNATE LYRICS

**Mary's boy child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas day

CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 2

Four ladies chain across the ring
Roll away and circle left
Four ladies roll away again, circle left
You allemande left and weave
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today
Swing, promenade
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas day
