Lyrics
Christ mas time was ap (C#m)proach ing,
snow was start ing to (C#m)fall,
shop pers choos ing their (B)pres ents,
peo ple fill ing the (B)mall.
Chil dren wait ing for (C#m)San ta
with ex cite ment and (C#m)glee.
A lit tle boy tugged my (B)sweat er,
looked up and asked (B)me,
“Where’s the line to see Je sus?
Is He here at the store?
If Christ mas time is His (Bm)birth day,
why don’t we see Him (B7)more?
Where’s the line to see Je sus?
He was born for me.
San ta Claus brought me (Bm)pres ents,
but (F#m7)Christ gave His life for (E)me.”
As I stood in a (C#m)maze ment
at this mes sage pro (C#m)found,
I looked down to (B)thank him;
he was no where a (B)round.
The lit tle boy at the (C#m)mall
might as well have (B)had (C#m)wings.
As the tears filled my (B)eyes,
thought I heard him (B)sing,
(E)me.”
In the (Amaj7)blink of an (B)eye, at the (G#m7)sound of His (C#m)trump, we’ll all (F#m7)stand in (B)line at His (E)throne.
Ev ’ry (Amaj7)knee shall bow (B)down, ev ’ry (G#m7)tongue will con (C#m)fess that (F#m7)Je sus Christ is (B)Lord.
Where’s the line to see Je sus?
Is He here at the store?
If Christ mas time is His (Cm)birth day,
why don’t we see Him (C7)more?
Where’s the line to see Je sus?
He was born for me.
San ta Claus brought me (Cm)pres ents,
but (Gm7)Christ gave His life for (F)me.

Questions about this song (12)
- Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "Where's The Line To See Jesus?"?
- Yes — the score is rendered server-side from the publisher MusicXML using Verovio (the same engine RISM and OpenScore use). Standard piano notation, treble + bass staves, real chord symbols, key signature E. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
- What key is "Where's The Line To See Jesus?" by Becky Kelley played in?
- Where's The Line To See Jesus? is arranged in the key of E on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.
- What's the tempo (BPM) of "Where's The Line To See Jesus?"?
- The arrangement plays at 100 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
- Is "Where's The Line To See Jesus?" easy to play on piano?
- This is a medium-difficulty arrangement. Most players can learn it within a few practice sessions using the speed control.

- Yes — registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
- Who composed "Where's The Line To See Jesus?"?

- What chords are used in "Where's The Line To See Jesus?"?
- This arrangement uses 19 chords: Amaj7, B, B7, Bm, C, C#m, C7, Cm, +11 more.
- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes — "Where's The Line To See Jesus?" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature E, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
- What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
- Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
- Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
- Yes — slow the tempo from 100 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
- Why can I click a note in the score?
- Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
- Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
- Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
