It's Christmas

1. A [A] way in a manger no [D] crib for a [A] bed
The [E] little Lord Jesus laid [D] down His sweet [A] head
The [A] stars in the sky looked [D] down where he [A] lay
The [D] little Lord [A] Jesus a [E] sleep on the [A] hay

2. The [A] cattle are lowing, the [D] baby a [A] wakes
But [E] little Lord Jesus, no [D] crying He [A] makes
I [A] love Thee Lord Jesus! Look [D] down from the [A] sky
And [D] stay by my [A] cradle til [E] morning is [A] nigh [D]

Chorus:It’s [A] Christmas! [D] The angels are [A] singing
[D] And I know the [A] reason
[E] the savior is [A] born
It’s [A] Christmas![D] The bells are [A] ringing
[D] And I feel like [A] shouting
[E] Joy to the [A] world!

3. Be [A] near me, Lord Jesus I [D] ask thee to [A] stay
Close [E] by me forever and [D] love me I [A] pray
Bless [A] all the dear children in [D] thy tender [A] care
And [D] fit us for [A] heaven to [E] live with thee [A] there

* [A] Go tell it on the mountain
[E] Over the hills and [A] everywhere! Go,
Tell it on the[D] mountain that [E] Jesus Christ is [A] born!
