G D G-C-G
A ray of hope flickers in the sky
Em D-C-D
A tiny star lights up way up high
C D Bm
All across the land, dawns a brand new morn
Em D Am D7 G
This comes to pass when a child is born
G D G-C-G
A silent wish sails the seven seas
Em D-C-D
The winds of change whisper in the trees
C D Bm
And the walls of doubt crumble, tossed and torn
Em D Am D7 G
This comes to pass when a child is born
G D G-C-G
A rosy hue settles all around
Em D-C-D
You've got the feel you're on solid ground
C D Bm
For a spell or two, no-one seems forlorn
Em D Am D7 G
This comes to pass when a child is born
And all of this happens because the world is waiting,
Waiting for one child
Black, white, yellow, no-one knows
But a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter,
Hate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone's neighbour
And misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten, forever
G D G-C-G
It's all a dream, an illusion now
Em D-C-D
It must come true, sometime soon somehow

All across the land, dawns a brand new morn
