Happy birthday Jesus
Mommy said that you were near
And that you had a birthday
this time every year
D
She told me how you listen
to every word we say
G
And that you hear us calling in the night
C
or in the day
She explained how bad they hurt you
G
and made you suffer so
But said you'd let them do it
C
for boys like me I know
She told me about the manger
they put you in
G
I'd let you have my blanket
If I was there back then
D
She said that you were watching
everything we do
G
Her and daddy and granny and our new
baby too
D
I liked what mommy told me how you healed the lame and
G
Eb
they so have to have any wealth or fame
Ab
She told me you were so
awful good
And then she made me cry
She said they nailed you to the cross
Eb
and wanted you to die
She said that you forgave them
though
Ab
Cause you were dying for
our sins
And then it made me happy
C#
When she said you came back again
Mommy said Christmas
Ab
is what we celebrate
Because on that day you were born
C#
So I hope I'm not too late
To wish you a happy birth
Ab
day dear Jesus

I'll be true because mommy said
that if I was good

You'd let me live with you
