[Verse]
D7   G7                  D7
They came from near they came from far
Em          D7              C
Following a distant star to where he lay
    G7            D7
Not being sure of what it meant
    Em             D7               C
But knowing it was heaven sent they made their way
        Am
And the creatures gathered round
    C
And didn't make a sound
        G7  F  C
And the angels cried
    G7               D7
The angels knew what was to come
    Em             D7                C
The reason God had sent His Son from up above
   G7                       D7
It filled their hearts with joy to see
    Em             D7           C
And knowing of His destiny came tears of love
        Am
And the creatures gathered round
    C
And didn't make a sound
        G7  F  C
And the angels cried
D7   G7            D7
I've often thought about that night
    Em               D7            C
And wondered if they realized that star so bright
    G            D7
Was sent to tell all the land
    Em               D7              C
The Son of God would soon become the Son of man
        Am
And the creatures gathered round
    C
And didn't make a sound
        G7  F  C
And the angels cried
        G7 F   C
And the angels cried
        G7  F  C
And the angels cried
