Chords for Christmas is The Man From Galilee", Cristy Lane

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ It was Christmas Eve [D] in a little Texas [A] _ town. _ _ _ _
[E] The snow was falling softly to [A] the ground. _ _ _ _ _
[D] Outside of a little chapel stood a [A] _ _ man _ _ _
[E] With sightless eyes a candle in [A] his _ hand. _ _ _
[D] Oh Lord, if you're there, _ _
[A] hear me. _ _ _
[E] I need you to light a candle for [A] a friend _ _ _ _ _
[D] Who came from a land across the [A] sea. _ _ _ _ _
[E] They call him the Man from [A] Galilee. _ _ _ _ _ _
But no one seemed [D] to hear his lonely [A] cry. _ _ _ _ _
[E] They laughed in Christmas cheer and walked [A] on by. _ _ _ _
[D] Inside they watched the clock upon [A] the wall, _ _ _ _
[E] Put silver in the box and left [A] the hall. _ _ _ _ _
[D] Oh Lord, if you're there, help [A] me in. _ _ _ _
[E] I need you to light a candle for [A] a friend
_ _ _ _ [B] _
[D] Who came from a land across the [A] sea. _ _ _ _ _
[E] They call him the Man from _
[A] Galilee. _ _ _ _ _ _

[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ Soon the [F] church was quiet in the night,
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ And [F] one by one the candles lost their [Eb] light.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ In darkness now the old [Eb] man knelt to [F] pray.
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[F] Forgive them, Lord, they must have lost [Bb] their way. _ _ _ _
[Eb] Oh Lord, if you're there, hear my [Bb] _ prayer.
_ _ _ Let [F] the message of your birthday fill [Bb] the air.
_ _ _ _ Let [Eb] the lesson of your love bless the [Bb] sea. _ _ _ _ _
[F] That Christmas is the Man from _
[Bb] Galilee. _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] Oh Lord, if you're there, help [Bb] me in. _ _ _ _
[F] I need you to light a candle for [Bb] a friend
Who came from a land across the sea.
They call him the Man from Galilee. _ _ _ _ _
