Mary Had a Baby -- Melissa Davis & the Nathaniel Dett Chorale

A stunningly beautiful version of the traditional spiritual:


Lyrics:

Mary had a baby. Oh, My Lord.
Oh, Mary had a baby. Oh, My Lord.

Where was he born?
Born in a manger, Lord.
Oh yes. Oh, My Lord.

What did they call him?
Oh, some called him one thing.

What did they call him?
Oh, but I'll call him another.

What did they call him?
Oh, and some say Emmanuel.

What did they call him?
Oh, I'll call him Sweet Little Jesus Boy.

I'll call him Jesus.
Oh, Jesus.

Wonderful Counselor.
My Jesus, Everlasting Father.

He is the Prince of Peace.
Oh, yes. Oh, My Lord.
__________
