[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

F/G     C              F/C   C
Let the bells ring out these tidings
F/C    C           F/C G
Let it echo across the land
       C               F
That a king is born in Bethlehem
        C          G  C
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
        C               F
Knowing every man's our brother
         C           F/C C
And that every child is  ours
