Verse 1
Me (D major) thinks I (E flat major) see an (D major) heavenly host
of angels on the wing.
Me thinks I hear their cheerful notes
so merrily they (G major) sing, (D major) so merrily they sing.
Let all your fears be banished
as the tidings I proclaim,
For there's a Saviour born today,
and Jesus is His (G major) name,
and (D major) Jesus is His name.
Lay down your crooks
and quit your thoughts
to Bethlehem repair,
And let your wandering steps be squared
By yonder shining (G major) star,
by (D major) yonder shining star.
Seek not in courts or palaces
Your royal pageant straw,
But search the stable, see your God
Extended on the (G major) straw,
ex (D major) tended on the straw.
Then (E flat major) when from fancy rural
(D major) swains
the meekness of your God,
Who left the boundless realms of joy
to ransom you (G major) (D major) with blood,
The Master of the Inn
refused a more harmonious price,
A generous soul of savage mold,
And destitute of (G major) grace,
And (D major) destitute (G major) of (D major) grace.
Exalt the (E flat major) arts and (D major) love,
O joyly tenants of the stall,
Hey, your obeisance on your knees
unanimously fall, (G major) unan (D major) imously fall.
The royal guest you entertain
is not of common birth,
But second in the great
I am the God of heaven an (G major) d earth,
The (D major) God of heaven and earth.
Then (E flat major) suddenly a (D major) heavenly host
Around the shepherds thronged,
Exalting in the threefold God,
And thus addressed their (G major) song,
And (D major) thus addressed their song,
To God the Father, Christ the Son,
and Holy Ghost the Lord,
The first and (D major) last, the last and first,
eternal praise af (G major) ford.
Etern (D major) al praise (G major) afford.
