The Christmas Song

 

G         D         Em                     Am     C       D

Once upon a midnight clear, our Savior came very near

              G     D           Em  Am    C    D

He was born King of Kings, ruler over everything

          G                       C            Em                D

God incarnate, Son of Man, little babe, Great I Am

G                 C                              Em            D

Resting in a bed of hay, You will show us the way

 

Chorus:

C               G               C                         G            Em      D         C

We praise You, You came so You could die for the sins of all mankind

C               G               C                         G            Em      D         C

We praise You, You came so You could die for the sins of all mankind

 

You set aside your royalty so You could give your life for me

Emmanuel, God with us;  In a child I place my trust

Kings and wise men from afar following a shining star

Now we all bow before Him, the babe who’s born in Bethlehem
