From "O Come All Ye Faithful" (2010)
Capo: 1
Play the G# like this, or it won't sound right.
Intro: A D A
Verse 1:
Do you find it hard to sleep tonight,
Resting by the Christmas lights?
Could there be something you forgot?
Beyond the bows and mistletoe,
The tree with presents wrapped below,
There's more to this than you had ever thought.
Have we lost the reason that we celebrate each year?
Chorus:
What is Christmas,
If there never was a Savior wrapped in a manger?
What is Christmas without Christ?
Verse 2:
Remember how the story goes:
God's gift was wrapped in swaddling clothes,
Beneath the star, one great and holy night.
The shepherds heard the angels sing.
The wise men brought an offering.
Peace on Earth began in Bethlehem.
Have we lost the reason that we celebrate each year?
Chorus:
What is Christmas,
If there never was a Savior wrapped in a manger?
What is Christmas,
If the angels never sang, "Glory to the newborn King?"
What is Christmas without Christ?
Bridge:
There'd be no
"Glo-o-o-oria,
In excelsis deo.
Glo-o-o-oria,
In excelsis de-e-o."
Chorus:
What is Christmas?
If there never was a Savior wrapped in a manger.
What is Christmas without Christ?
Final Chorus:
This is Christmas!
It's all about a Savior wrapped in a manger.
This is Christmas,
Because of Jesus Chri-ist.
This is Christmas,
Because of Christ,
Because of Christ.
