Verse 1: 
    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 their way,

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