(intro 2x) G5  E5

                    G5                      A5
Come down to the manger, see the little stranger
  C5                     D5                     G5
Wrapped in swaddling clothes, the prince of peace
                G5                     A5
Wheels start turning, torches start burning
         C5              D5              G5
And the old wise men journey from the East

        E5         D5              C5             G5
How a little baby boy bring the people so much joy
            A5
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
                              D5    G5
This must be Christmas, must be tonight

A shepherd on a hillside, while over my flock I bide
Oh a cold winter night a band of angels sing
In a dream I heard a voice saying "fear not, come rejoice
It's the end of the beginning, praise the new born king"

I saw it with my own eyes, written up in the skies
But why a simple herdsmen such as I
And then it came to pass, he was born at last
Right below the star that shines on high
