Mary was the first one to carry the gospel
When the angels brought the news
Of the precious little boy
Mary was the first one to carry the gospel
When that news brought joy sweet joy
The shepherds watched their flocks by night
Nearly fell asleep
Another lonely quiet night
Of watchin' all those sheep
Until a choir of holy angels pierced
The night with songs of joy
Good news I bring For Christ the King
Is Mary's baby boy
Mary Was the First One To Carry The Gospel
When the angels brought the news
Of that precious little boy
Mary Was the First One To Carry The Gospel
And that news brought joy sweet joy
Hosannah to the highest and Christ his only son
Gods story wrapped in Swadling clothes
The Meek and lonely one
This baby boy will change the hearts of all
Who can believe
What the prophets told has come to pass
A virgin has conceived
Mary Was the First One To Carry The Gospel
When the angels brought the news
Of that precious little boy
Precious little
Mary Was the First One To Carry The Gospel
And that news brought joy sweet joy
Sweet joy
Mary Was the First One To Carry The Gospel
When the angels brought the news
Of that precious little boy
Precious little
Mary Was the First One To Carry The Gospel
And that news brought joy sweet joy
And that news brought so much joy
Yes that news brought joy sweet joy
