[Dm]In

[Verse 1]
those [Edim]days,
Caesar Augustus issued [Am]a decree
that [Dm]a census should be taken
of the entire Roman world.
[Eb]This was the first census that[Am] took place
while Quirinius was governor
of [Dm]Syria.
And everyone went [Edim]to
his own town to [Am]register.
So Joseph [Dm]also went up
from the town of Nazareth
in Galilee [Edim]to Judea to Beth[Am]lehem,
the town of David,
because he belonged to the
house and [Bb]line [C]of David.
He went there to register with Mary,
who was [Dm]pledged to be married to him
an[Bb]d was expecting a ch[C]ild.
While they were there,
the time came for the baby to be born.
[Bb]And she gave birth to her [C]firstborn, a son.
[Dm]She wrapped him in cloths
and placed him in a manger,
[Bb]because there was no room
for them in the in[Gm]n.[A]
[D]In the little town [G]of Bethlehem,
[D]a miracle was [Bm]born to set [G]us free.
We [D]read about it [G]every year.
I want [D]to live my life so [Bm]everyone can [G]see
that it's [F]more than [G]a story to m[D]e.
And there were [C]shepherds
living out
in the fields nearby,
[D]keeping watch [G]over their flock[C]s at night.
[D]An ang[Dm]el of [Bb]the Lord appeared to [C]them,
and the [D]glory of the [Dm]Lord
shone [Bb]around them,
[G]and they were terrified.
[Dm]But the angel said to th[C]em,
Do not [Dm]be afraid.
I [Bb]bring you [D]good news of great [Dm]joy
that will be for all [C]people.
Today, in the town [Dm]of David,
[Bb]a Savior has [Dm]been born to you.
He is Christ the [Edim]Lord.
This will [Am]be a sign to you.
You will find a baby [Dm]wrapped in cloths
and lying [Edim]in a manger.
Suddenly, a [Am]great company
of the heavenly host[C]s
appeared with [Dm]the angel,
praising God and saying,
[D]Glory to God in [Dm]the highest,
[D]and on ear[Dm]th, peace to men,
on whom [Gm]His fa[C]vor rests.
[Dm]litt[D]le t[Dm]own [D]of Bethlehem,[G]
a [D]miracle was [Bm]born to set [G]us free.
We [D]read about it [G]every year.
I want [D]to live my life
so [Bm]everyone can [G]see.
But that is [F]more than [G]a story to m[D]e.
When the angels had left [Dm]them
and gone in[C]to heaven,
the shepherds said to one another,
[Dm]Let's go to Bethlehem and see this
thing that has happene[D]d
which the Lord [C]has told us about.
So [D]they hurried off and
found Mary and Joseph
an[G]d the baby who was l[D]y
ing [G]in the manger.
When they had [D]seen him,
they spread [G]the word concerning what had been [A]told them about [D]this child,
and all who heard it were amazed [G]at what the shepherds said to them.
[D]But [G]Mary treasured up all these things
[D]and pondered them [G]in her [D]heart.[Dm]
The [Edim]shepherds returned,
[Eb]glorifyi[Am]ng and praising God
[Dm]for all the things that [D]they had heard and seen which
[Eb]were just as they had [Am]been [D]told.[G][D]
[Dm]More than a [G]story to [D]me
More than a [G]story
Much more than a [D]story
This is more [G]than a story to [Dsus4]me
[D]In the little town of [G]Bethlehem
A [D]miracle was [Bm]born to set us [G]free
We [D]read about it [G]every year
But it's [D]clear to everybody [Bm]that I [G]see
That it's [F]more than [G]a story to me
