[Primeira Parte]
F C
They came from near, they came from far
Dm C A#
Following a distant star to where He lay
F C
Not being sure of what it meant, but
Dm C
Knowing it was heaven sent
A#
They made their way
G A
And the creatures gathered 'round
G A
And didn't make a sound
F G F
And the angels cried
[Segunda Parte]
F C
The angels knew what was to come
Dm C
The reason God had sent His son
A#
From up above
F C
It filled their hearts with joy to see, and
Dm C
Knowing of His destiny
A#
Came tears of love
[Terceira Parte]
F C
I've often thought about that night
Dm C
And wondered if they realized
A#
That star so bright
F C
Was sent to tell all the land
Dm C
The Son of God would soon become
A#
The Son of Man
