Its Christmas

[Intro] A  B  A  E

        A                  D          A
Away in a manger no crib for a bed
    E                      A
The little lord Jesus laid down
                     A           C#m
His sweet head, the stars in the sky
       D             A
Looked down where he lay
    D            A      E           A
The little lord Jesus asleep on the hay

    A                      D     A
The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes
    E                     D
But little lord Jesus, no crying
   A                        C#m
He makes, I love thee lord Jesus!
     D              A       D
Look down from the sky and stay
       A         E           A     D
By my cradle til morning is nigh

      A         D
It’s christmas!
               A       D
The angels are singing
               A       D
And I know the reason
              A     Bm7  D
The savior is born

      A         D
It’s christmas!
              A       D
The bells are ringing
                 A        B
And I feel like shouting
E           A
Joy to the world!

   A                     D           A
Be near me, lord Jesus I ask thee to stay
      E                  A   D     A
Close by me forever and love me I pray
      A            C#m          D         A
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care
    D          A
And fit us for heaven
    E             A      D
To live with thee there

      A         D
It’s christmas!
               A       D
The angels are singing
               A       D
And I know the reason
              A     Bm7  D
The savior is born

      A         D
It’s christmas!
              A       D
The bells are ringing
                 A        B
And I feel like shouting
E           A
Joy to the world!

A
Go tell it on the mountain
E                   A
Over the hills and everywhere!
A                  D
Go, tell it on the mountain that
A               E
Jesus christ is born!
