It’s the Em7same that apCpeared and the Gwise men revered
When Chope was Dborn this Gnight

And it Em7echoes the Cgrace of our GSavior’s embrace
Because Chope was Dborn this Gnight
[Chorus]
CGlory to GGod in the Em7highDest
CPeace on GEarth, goodEm7will toward Dmen
Let Call of the Gworld sing the Em7chorus of Djoy
Because Chope was Dborn this Gnight
[Verse 3]
I can Ghear the CChristmas Gbells ringing
as sCoftly a Gchurch choir Dsings
It’s the Em7song used to Cpraise the Gancient of days
When Chope was Dborn this Gnight

Like a Em7shepherd so sCcared, I’ll reGjoice and declare
