[Verse 1]
    C     F/C C
In the middle of a  forest
F/C    C      F/C G
There's a clearing by a stream
    C        F
Where a mother holds her newborn
    C   G     C
And the child begins to dream
F/G  C       F/C  C
And he dreams of hopes un - spoken
F/G   C      F/C G
When the tears of man will cease
    C        F
And his mother holds him closer
    C       G C
For he is the Prince of peace

Let the bells ring out these tidings

Let it echo across the land

That a king is born in Bethlehem

And his kingdom is at hand
F/G   C       F/C C
Let the world rejoice to - gether
F/G  C     F/C G
As it looks upon the stars

Knowing every man's our brother

And that every child is ours
