[Verse 1]
[D]Goo[G]d p[C]eop[D]le all,
this Christmas time
[G]Consider well, and [C]bear in mind
[D]What our good God [A]for [Bm]us h[D]as done,
In [Gm]sending [D]His be[C]loved [D]Son.
With [Dm]Mary [C]holy we should pray,
[Gm]To God with [Dm]love [D]this Christ[Asus4]mas day.
[A]In [D]Bethle[Asus4]hem, upon that[D] morn,
There [Gm]was [D]a Mess[G]iah bo[D]rn.[Dsus4][D]
[C][Dsus4][D][Gm][Dsus4][D][Gm]
The [D]night before that happy tide
The [G]noble virgin an[C]d her guide
[Dsus4]Were long[D] time seeking up and down[Bm][D]
To [Gm]find [G]a l[D]odging i[C]n the town
[D]But mar[Dm]k how all[C] things cam[Bb]e to pas[F]s
From [Gm]every [Bb]door [F]re [Dm]pelled,
[Am]alas[Asus4]!
[A]As [D]love foretold, [Em]their [D]refuge all
Was [Gm]but [D]a humble o[C]x's [D]stall[Dsus4][D]
[C][Dsus4][D][Gm][D][Dsus4][Gm]
[Gm]There were [D]three wise men from afar,
Dir[G]ected by the [C]glorious [Dsus4]star,
And [D]on they wandered
[Bm]night and [Asus4]day,
[D]Until the[Gm]y cam[D]e whe[Bm]re Je[D]sus lay.[C][D]
And [Dm]when they [C]came unto that place,
Where [Gm]our beloved Mes
[Dm]si a[Am]h was[Asus4],
[A]They [D]love me best [Em]when [D]at His feet,
With [Gm]gifts of [D]gold and [C]incense [D]lit.
