(G Em G Em) Come down to the manger, see the little stranger (G Am) Wrapped in swaddling clothes the Prince of Peace (D C G) Wheels start turning, torches start burning (G Am) And the old wise men journey from the East (D C G) CHORUS: How a little baby boy bring the people so much joy (Em Am D G) Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light (Am C Am C) This must be Christmas, must be tonight (Am D G) A shepherd on a hillside, where over my flock I bide On 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 herdsman such as I? And then it came to pass, he was born at last Right below the star that shines on high
