   D                A 
They came from near  they came from far  
     Bm       A               G 
Following a distant star to where He lay. 
   D                      A 
Not being sure of what it meant  but 
   Bm                  A 
Knowing it was Heaven sent  
    G 
They made thier way. 


       Em 
And the creatures gathered 'round 
   G 
And didn't make a sound  
        D   C  G 
And the Angels cried. 

 
D              A 
The Angels knew what was to come  
Bm             A                G 
The reason God had sent His Son from up above. 
 D              A 
It filled their hearts with joy to see  and 
Bm             A 
Knowing of His destiny  
     G 
Came tears of love.

(Intro) 


D                  A 
I've often thought about that night  
Bm              A                  G 
And wondered if they realized that star so bright. 
D                A 
Was sent to tell all the land  
Bm                   A 
The Son of God would soon become 
    G 
The Son of man. 


        D   C  G 
And the Angels cried
