Lyrics

In a (Am)land far a way, time stood still long a go.

There were (Am)shep herds in fields, or at least this is how the sto ry goes,

(Am)Wom an with child, and an inn with no room.

There were (Am)Born in a man ger, fore tell ing a tomb.

the This is how

the sto ry goes.

But it’s more than a fa ble,

and it’s more than a fair y tale,

and (Dm7)more than my mind

(C)can con (Gsus)ceive.

I be (Eb)lieve

the (Cm)wise men (Bb)saw

the (Fm)ba by boy the an gels called the (Fm)Son of (Abmaj7)God.

(Fm)Heav en’s (Eb)Child,

the (Cm)great I (Bb)AM,

(Fm)born to take a way my sin through nail pierced (Abmaj7)hands.

Em man u (Eb)el

has (Bbsus)come,

I be (Am)lieve.

(Am)Two thou sand years, still the sto ry lives on.

(Am)God’s gift to us, sent to earth wrapped in flesh, His on ly Son,

His on ly Son.

And the (Fsus2)heart beat of heav en

con (Am7)found ed our wis dom,

but it’s (Dm7)still the sim ple truth that set me (Gsus)free.

I be (Eb)lieve

the wise men saw

the ba by boy the an gels called the (Bb)Son of (Abmaj7)God.

(Fm)Heav en’s (Eb)Child,

the great I AM,

(Bb7)born to take a way my sin through nail pierced (Ab)hands.

Em man u (Eb)el

and I be (Abmaj9)lieve.

(Abmaj9)Pre cious Child,

how (Eb)can it (Bb)be (Eb)that

God’s great plan

send You to

the (G)lone ly (Bb)tree,

(Cm)that (Ab)You would come

for (Bbsus)one like me?

I be (F)lieve

I be lieve He came for one, He came for all.

Heav en’s (F)Child
