Gaither Vocal Band - Mary Was the First One to Carry the Gospel Lyrics

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
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

The shepherds watched their flocks by night
Nearly fell asleep
Another lonely quiet night of
Watchin’ all those sheep
Until the 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

Hosanna to the highest and to Christ
His only son
God's glory 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

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
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

And that news brought joy, sweet joy
And that news brought joy, sweet joy
Yeah, yeah
