The Huron Carol – Traditional Canadian Carol
A minorAm G+G DmDm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm
'Twas in the moon of winter-time when all the birds had fled,
A minorAm G+G DmDm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm G+G A minorAm
That mighty Gitchi Manitou sent angel choirs instead;
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm G+G A minorAm G+G A minorAm E MajorE
Before their light the stars grew dim, and wond’ring hunters heard the hymn:
A minorAm G+G FF E MajorE A minorAm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm E7E7 A minorAm
"Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born, In excelsis gloria."
A minorAm G+G DmDm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm
Within a lodge of broken bark the tender Babe was found,
A minorAm G+G DmDm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm G+G A minorAm
A augmentedA ragged robe of rabbit skin enwrapp'd His beauty round;
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm G+G A minorAm G+G A minorAm E MajorE
But as the hunter braves drew nigh, the angel song rang loud and high...
A minorAm G+G FF E MajorE A minorAm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm E7E7 A minorAm
"Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born, In excelsis gloria."
A minorAm G+G DmDm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm
O children of the forest free, O sons of Manitou,
A minorAm G+G DmDm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm G+G A minorAm
The Holy Child of earth and heaven is born today for you.
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm G+G A minorAm G+G A minorAm E MajorE
Come kneel before the radiant Boy who brings you beauty, peace and joy.
A minorAm G+G FF E MajorE A minorAm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm E7E7 A minorAm
"Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born, In excelsis gloria."
A minorAm G+G DmDm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm
The earliest moon of winter-time is not so round and fair,
A minorAm G+G DmDm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm G+G A minorAm
As was the ring of glory on the helpless infant there;
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm G+G A minorAm G+G A minorAm E MajorE
The chiefs from far before him knelt with gifts of fox and beaver pelt.
A minorAm G+G FF E MajorE A minorAm E minor 7Em7 A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm E7E7 A minorAm
"Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born, In excelsis gloria."
