G - D - D7 - G G 1. The child is a king, the carollers sing, Em D the old has passed, theres a new beginning. C G Dreams of Santa, dreams of snow, A D D7 fingers numb, faces aglow. G Christmas time, mistletoe and wine, D children singing Christian rhyme. With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree, D7 G a time to rejoice in the good that we see. G 2. A time for living, a time for believing, Em D a time for trusting, not deceiving. C G Love and laughter and joy ever after, A D D7 ours for the taking, just follow the master. + CHORUS + repeat CHORUS as instrumental G 3. Its a time for giving, a time for getting, Em D a time for forgiving and for forgetting. C G Christmas is love, Christmas is peace, A D D7 a time for hating and fighting to cease. + CHORUS (3x)
