Lyrics of Mary Was The First One To Carry The Gospel by Gaither Vocal Band
chorus
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
chorus
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
verse
The shepherds watched their flocks by night, and 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!
chorus
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
verse
Hosanna to the highest and Christ His only son
God's story wrapped in swaddling clothes
The meek and holy 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!
chorus
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
chorus
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!
outro
And that news brought joy, sweet joy!
And that news brought joy, sweet joy!
