G D/F# Em7 And as they found the stable in Bethlehem Am C a tiny baby greeted them. G D/F# Em Their lives would change when they saw Him C D G the day the Savior came C G They started singing

G Am Well He grew up, pure and straight and strong. C Am Em D Then preached so boldly in a synagogue with holy wisdom from above.

Em D Em D Well He came to John to be baptized which was pleasing to His Father’s eyes G D/F# Em D the Spirit then descended so the world could then be mended.

G Em7 For forty days our Lord was empty, C Am Satan lied and He was tempted but Em D through it all He did not sin.

G Am Well the time came, Jesus was betrayed C Am His faithful scattered they were so afraid. Em D He faced His trials without a friend.

Em D Well He died nailed to a wooden cross, Em D for the next three days all hope was lost C G A7 but God had a world to save C D So He raised Him from the grave G D/F# Em7 and as He let His friends know all is well Em Am C that He kicked in the gates of hell G D/F# Em7 the powers of sin and darkness fell C D G the day the Savior came C G They started singing

[Verse 6]
G D/F# Em7 Though it’s been two thousand years, Am C D the reason for the season remains clear, Em D yet some people still have doubts. G D/F# Em7 Some will say its just a tale Am C others choose a different trail Em C D and this gift from God, they’d rather live without. Em Am This story’s more than just a rhyme Em Am it’s more than church at Christmas time. C G Am7 It’s a gift that keeps on living C D a love that keeps forgiving. G D/F# Em God’s master plan had been deployed, Am C D from what started as His baby boy. G D/F# Em Can you imagine Mary’s joy C D G the day the Savior came
