Girls and boys, leave your toys. Make no noise,

Our Saviour’s here.

We sing Thy praise.

Shepherds came - at the fame - of Thy name,
Em        Bm   D     Bm     G
Angels their guide to Bethlehem.

   Em Bm G
Stood at Thy door.

Gold, Myrrh and Frankincense they bring.

As 'twas said - starlight led - to Thy bed,
   Em Bm G
Bending their knee.
