[C#] [B] [A#] [F#] A ray of [C#] hope glitters [F#] in the sky.
A tiny [B] star [D#m] lights up a [C#] way up high.
[B] All across the [C#] land dawns a [A#m] brand new [D#m] morn.
This [C#] comes to pass when a [F#] child is born.
A silent wish [C#] sails the [F#] seven seas.
The winds have [B] changed [D#m] the [C#] spiral of the trees.
[B] In the walls of [C#] doubt, [A#m] crushed and torn,
[D#m] this [C#] comes to pass when a [F#] child is born.
A rosy hue [C#] glitters [F#] all around.
You've got the [B] feel, [F#] you're on [C#] solid ground.
[B] For a spell or two, [C#] no one [A#m] seems forlorn.
[D#m] This comes [C#] to pass [B] when [G#] a child [F#] is born.
[A#m] And all of this [F#] happens because the world is waiting.
Waiting for one [B] child.
[A#m] [G#] Black, white, yellow, no one knows.
[G#m] But a child that [D#] will grow up and turn tears [A#m] to laughter,
hate [D#m] to love, war to [C#] peace,
and everyone [G#m] to everyone's [A#m] neighbor.
[F#] Misery and suffering will be forgotten forever.
It's all [G] a dream [D] and illusion [G] now.
It must come true, [C] sometime, [Bm] soon, [D] somehow.
[C] All across the land [D] dawns a brand [B] new morn.
[Em] This comes to [D] pass when a [G] child is born.
