Christmas Must Be Tonight

G Em G Em G Am Come down to the manger, see the little stranger C D G Wrapped in swaddling clothes, the prince of peace G Am Wheels start turning, torches start burning C D G And the old wise men journey from the East Em D C G How a little baby boy bring the people so much joy Am Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light D G This must be Christmas, must be tonight A shepherd on a hillside, while over my flock I bide Oh a cold winter night a band of angels sing In a dream I heard a voice saying "fear not, come rejoice It's the end of the beginning, praise the new born king" I saw it with my own eyes, written up in the skies But why a simple herdsmen such as I And then it came to pass, he was born at last Right below the star that shines on high
