A Esus E D
There's a little girl trembling on a cold December morn
Esus E
Crying for momma's arms
A Esus E D
At an orphanage just outside a little China town
Esus
There the forgotten are
E Bm A
But half a world away I hang the stockings by the fire
G Esus E
And dream about the day when I can finally call you mine
A Bm
It's Christmas time again but you're not home
D A
Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
F#m7 Bm
So tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in his arms
A D E A
And I'll tell you from my heart I wish you Merry Christmas
A Esus E D
As I hang the tinsel on the tree and watch the twinkling lights
Esus E
I'm warmed by the fire's glow and
A Esus E D
Outside the children tumble in a wonderland of white,
Esus
Make angels in the snow
E Bm A
But half a world away you try your best to fight the tears
G Esus E
And hope that heaven's angels come to carry you here
A Bm
It's Christmas time again but you're not home
D A
Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
F#m7 Bm
So tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in his arms
A D E A
And I'll tell you from my heart I wish you Merry Christmas
G D A
And Christmas is a time to celebrate the holy child
G D A
And when we celebrate his perfect gift of love
G D
He came to earth to give his life
Fm
And prepare a place for us
Bm G E
So we could have a home with him above
A Bm
It's Christmas time again and now you're home
D A
Your family is here so you will never be alone
F#m7 Bm
So tonight before you go to sleep I'll hold you in my arms
A D A D
And I'll tell you from my heart and I'll tell you from my heart
E A
I wish you Merry Christmas
