[Verse 1]
A E E
Born in a manger in a stable in Bethlehem
A A
What a way to begin the incarnation of the great I am
D Bm
Placing Mary's little baby in the center of the universal plan
E
It brings us all back together like birds of a feather,
A A A E A
Every boy, girl, woman and man
[Verse 2]
A E E
Satan was right at his heels when he came to Earth
A A
He tried to stop him one way or another, from the time of his birth.
D Bm
Just as when he thought he had succeeded, somethin' happened at the cross of Calvary,
E
That turned defeat into victory,
A A
Restoring the family, the Father, the Savior and me
[Chorus]
E A
And too many times we get discouraged
Bm E E
Try to fight a battle that we can't win
A E D Bm
And too often I've found,we tend to carry our burdens around
Bm E E
But Jesus said we've got to let 'em off on him
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
A E E
Heaven rejoices every time a lost child comes home
A A
Don't you know there's a place in the kingdom for those who roam
D Bm
So if you're looking for an answer it was spoken long before the world began
E
It brings us all back together like birds of a feather,
A A
Every boy, girl, woman and man
[Chorus]
E A
And too many times we get discouraged
Bm E E
Try to fight a battle that we can't win
A E D Bm
And too often I've found,we tend to carry our burdens around
Bm E E
But Jesus said we've got to let 'em off on him

Placing Mary's little baby in the center of the universal plan

Every boy, girl, woman and man
It brings us all back together like birds of a feather,

Every boy, girl, woman and man
