Run and tell everybody you see

Bethlehem has a little baby

Born in a stable late one night

Underneath a sky so starry bright

The star made the night to shine like day

And the shepherds came to bring him praise

Wise men brought him beautiful gifts

They brought gold myrrh and frankincense

What did they call that little bitty baby

King jesus is his name

What did the heavenly host proclaim king jesus is his name

While tell me who would have thought this tiny lad

Would hold all power in his hand

Tell me what did they call him

King jesus is his name

People came from all around

They knelt in awe of this king they found

The manger held such a holy sight

This gift from heaven would bring them life

Life forever in a heavenly place

For every nation color every creed and race

This little baby's going to change the world

In the hearts of men women boys and girls

What did they call that little bitty baby

King jesus is his name

What did the heavenly host proclaim king jesus is his name

While tell me who would have thought this tiny lad

Would hold all power in his hand

Tell me what did they call him

King jesus is his name

King jesus is his merry

People came from all around

They knelt in awe of this king they found

The manger held such a holy sight

The manger held tell a lie

What did they call that little bitty baby

King jesus is his name

What did the heavenly host proclaim king jesus is his name

While tell me who would have thought this tiny lad

Would hold all power in his hand

Tell me what did they call him

King jesus is his name

They call that little bitty baby

King jesus is his name

What did the heavenly host proclaim king jesus is his name

While tell me who would have thought this tiny lad

Would hold all power in his hand

Tell me what did they call him

King jesus is his name

They call that little bitty baby

King jesus is his name

Tell me what they call me
