INTRO:
Dm Bb F C
VERSE 1:
Dm Bb
Did it feel like a night any different
Dm Bb
Then at least a million before
Dm Bb
Was there any rare expectation
Dm Bb
Like there was some kind of something in store
Gm Bb/F Eb2
Did the sky have to hold back the thunder
Gm Dm/F Eb
Did the moon find new reasons to glow
Dm F Bb2
Could the children somehow sense the wonder
Dm C Dm - Bb - C
Two thousand Decembers ago
VERSE 2:
Dm Bb
Were the sheep as amazed as the shepherds
Dm Bb
At the new star that lit up the sky
Dm Bb
Did the willow trees whisper excitement
Dm Bb
To the rivers and streams passing by
Gm Bb/F Eb2
Did the joy ricochet off the mountains
Gm Dm/F Eb
'Til it filled up the valleys below
Dm F Bb2
Did all the world sense love abounding
Dm C Dm - Bb - C
Two thousand Decembers ago
CHORUS:
F G
Was anyone able to look at the stable
Am G F
And not see a child but a King
G
I wish I could hear back over the years
Am7 G F G
As heaven & nature sing, heaven and nature sing.
VERSE 3:
Did the walls of the barn start to tremble
With a glory they could not contain
Did anyone wake with the feeling
Of peace that they could not explain
Oh the love must have been overwhelming
As it warmed everyone in its flow
For all of the earth is still telling
Of two thousand Decembers ago
Was anyone able to look at the stable
And not see a child but a king
I wish I could hear back over the years
As heaven and nature sing, heaven and nature sing
Oh the love must have been overwhelming
Two thousand Decembers ago
