Verse 1
G 
C 
G 
C 
D 
G 
They're putting decorations
C 
G 
up in front of my old church
C 
D 
The shepherds and the wise men
G 
and the hay
C 
There's Joseph and his Mary
G 
Em 
looking down at heaven's birth
C 
And the angels saying,
D 
G 
don't you be afraid
It makes me stop and think about
C 
G 
how you showed up down here
C 
D 
G 
In a humble bed made of nails and  wood
C 
You could have picked a palace,
G 
something more fit for a king
Em 
C 
But then the story would
D 
G 
n't be as good
C 
From the highest of the high
G 
to the lowest of the low
Em 
That stable tells a story
D 
of the distance you will go
C 
For the lonely and the lost,
G 
D 
there's no sinner too far gone
Em 
C 
To find a Savior
Cm 
G 
C 
I am in the manger
G 
There's a star up in the sky
C 
G 
and it's calling all the least of these
C 
Come make your way
D 
G 
to where your hope is found
C 
If I'm honest some days
G 
Em 
I feel too far out of reach
C 
D 
But the manger reminds me
G 
love reached down
C 
From the highest of the high
G 
to the lowest of the low
Em 
But the stable tells a story
D 
of the distance you will go
C 
For the lonely and the lost
G 
D 
G 
Em 
There's no sinner too far gone
C 
Cm 
to find a savior
G 
C 
G 
Lyin' in the manger
C 
D 
G 
Oh -oh -oh -oh -oh -oh
You were carried by a manger
C 
G 
and just 33 years later
C 
By a rugged cross made
D 
G 
from nails and  wood
C 
And the tears filled up my eyes
G 
D 
Em 
You didn't have to give your life
C 
D 
But then the story would
G 
C 
G 
n't be as good
C 
From the highest of the high
G 
and to the lowest of the low
Em 
That stable tells the story
D 
of the distance you will go
C 
The lonely and the lost,
G 
Em 
there's no sinner too far gone
C 
To find the Savior
Cm 
G 
C 
G 
C 
D 
G 
Lying in the manger
C 
G 
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
D 
The little Lord Jesus laid
C 
G 
down His sweet head
The stars in the sky
C 
G 
look down where he lay
D 
Em 
C 
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
