how suddenly a baby cries Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]How suddenly a baby [Dm]cries and
[Em]all [Am]forever [G]change
[Am]As shepherds leave the angel
[Dm]song to [Am]find this [Dm]holy [Am]place,
Where [Em]in her y[Am]oung and t[Dm]rembling
arm[C]s a v[Am]irgin holds h[Em]er Son
And [Dm]in this Child of b[C]reath di[Am]vine our L[Bm]ight has
finally [Am]come.[G]
[F][Am][Dm][Em]

[Verse 2]
[F][G]
She [Am]ponders how [F]the Magi [Dm]kneel
be[Am]fore [Dm]Emmanuel.
[F]With [Am]gold and frankin[Dm]cense and myrrh
[Am]Christ's sacri[Dm]fice they [Am]tell.
A [Em]dream would [Am]help [F]them flee a [C]king
[Em]whose [Am]pride would cruelly des[Em]troy.
As [Dm]mothers weep God's [C]mer[Am]cy meets
the [Bm]hunger for His [Am]joy.
[Asus4][Am]

[Verse 3]
What wonder still that [Dm]Anna filled with
[Am]praise should bless the [G]Lord;[Am]
Her aging eyes now [Dm]looking on
[Am]the Savior of the world.
For [G]night and day her [D]prayers had
filled the [F]temple of our [Em]God.
Her [Dm]heart could tell His saving [Em]hand [F]within this [G]gift of love.

[G]
[Am]Hear Simeon

[Verse 4]
who had [Dm]waited long
draw [Am]near to hold [Dm]the child[Am][G]
To [Am]speak of Him who would [G]reveal
[Am]the many thoughts we hide:
That [C]hearts would rise to [Em]know His
grace but [Dm]many [G]fall away;
[F]A sword would pierce His [Dm]mother's [Em]soul
[F]upon re[G]demption [Am]day.
[Asus4][Bm]

[Verse 5]
How suddenly a baby cried and
all forever [F#m]changed.
Through [Bm]history soul by [G]soul have
[F#m]come to f[Em]ind His h[F#m]eal in[A]g gr[Bm]ace.
He [D]filled my troubled [F#m]heart with peace,
[Bm]with hope of endless [F#m]worth.
My [G]voice will join [Em]the song of [F#m]praise that [G]tells Mes[A]siah's [Bm]birth.
