The Morning
By Clifford D. Cory
(Intro ? finger pick "Silent Night" in the key of A)
A
It was the night before Christmas
D A
And we sang Silent Night
We exchanged gifts
E A
By the glow of the fireplace light
As I was feeling
D A
So safe and so warm
I wondered what it was like
E7
The morning Jesus was born
We sang until past midnight
The songs of joy and love
Then bells started ringing
Like a sign from above
That now with the dawn
It became Christmas morn
I couldn't help thinking of
The morning Jesus was born.
I heard the sounds of young laughter
And saw children playing outside
Making snow angels
And sharing sled rides
And Johnny was passing around his new Christmas horn
And I felt all the love
From the morning Jesus was born.
