It happened one day near December's
end when two neighbors
C
Called on an old friend and they found

his shop so meager an d

of green and Conrad was
Sitting with faces shining when he sud
D
denly stopped as he
Stitched a twine and he said "Old friends,
it dawned today
As the cock was crowing the night
away the Lord appeared in
C
A dream to me and said
"I'm coming your guest to be."
So I've been busy with feet of stern
A
D
strewing my shop with
A
Branches of fern. The table is spread
and the kettle is shine.
D
And over the rafters the holly
is twine. Now I'll wait for my
G
Lord to appear and listen closely
so I will hear his step as
D
Em
He nears my humble place. And I'll open the

door and look on His face.
A
So his

friends went home
Asus4

and left Conrad alone for this
D
Was the happiest day he had known.
For long since his family had
G
Passed away and Conrad had spent
many a sad Christmas Day.
Em
But he knew with the Lord as his Christ
E
D
mas Guest this Christmas
Em

Would be the dearest and best.
Verse 3
A

So he listened with only joy
A
in his heart and with
Asus4
A
Every sound he would rise with a start
D
and look for the
Lord to be at his door. Like the vision
he had had a few hours before.
So he ran to the window after hearing
a sound but all he could
C
See on the snow covered ground
was a shabby beggar whose shoes
Were torn and all of his clothes
A
Asus4
were ragged and worn.
A
But Conrad was touched
Verse 4
A
and he went to the door
D
And he said "You know your feet
must be frozen and sore.
I have some shoes in my shop for you
and a coat that will
Keep you warmer too." So with grate
C
ful heart the man went away
But Conrad noticed the time of day
Am
A
and wondered what made the
Lord so late and how much longer he'd
Asus4
D
have to wait.
Verse 5
When he heard a knock he ran
to the door but it was
G
Only a stranger once more. A bent
old lady with a shawl of
Em
D
Black with a bundle of kindling
Em
piled on her back. She asked
Edim
Em
Asus4
For only a place to rest but
A
that was reserved for Conrad's
Asus4
A
Great guest. But her voice seemed
D
to plead "Don't send me away,
G
Let me rest for awhile on Christmas Day",
so Conrad brewed
Her a steaming cup and told her to
Em
set at the table and sup.
E
Verse 6
D
But after she left he was filled with dis

may for
A
Asus4
He saw that the hours were slipping away
A
and the Lord hadn't come as
D
He said he would. Then Conrad felt sure he
had misunderstood.
Verse 7
D
When out of of the stillness
he heard a cry "Please
C
Help me and tell me where am I?"
So again he opened his
Friendly door and stood disapoin
D
C
ted as twice before.
A
It was only a child that wandered away
and was lost from
D
Her family on Christmas Day.
Verse 8
Again Conrad's heart was
heavy and sad but he knew
He should make the little girl glad.
So he called her in
C
And he wiped her tears,
D
C
quieted all her childish fears.
Then he led her back to her home once
Asus4
A
more but as he
Entered his own darkened
Asus4
A
D
door he knew the
Lord was not coming today.
Verse 9
D
Well the hours of Christmas had
G
passed away so he
Went to his room and knelt
Em
down to pray and he said
"Dear Lord, why did you delay?
Asus4
What kept you from

Asus4
Am
Coming to call on me? For I wanted
D
so much your face to see.

" When soft in the silence a voice he heard.
Verse 10
"Lift up your head for I kept my word.
Em
D
Three times my shadow crossed your floor
E
D
And three times I came
Asus4
A
to your lowly door.
I was the beggar with bruised, cold feet
D
And I was the woman you gave
something to eat.
I was the child on the homeless
street.
Three times I knocked,
C
and three times I came in.
And each time I found the warmth
D
C
of a friend.

Of all the gifts, love is the best.

And I was honored to
be your Christmas Guest.

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”
Got me back into playing
Tuliketsune
“I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad
“Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”
Very reliable tuner
theNewPaul
“This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!”
This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”
Great to tune and play
Lynae T
“I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
