[Intro]
G A F#min Bmin G A Dsus D
[Verse]
G A D
The sunrise was beautiful this morning
G A F#/A# Bmin G
But somehow it seemed that everything was darker than the sky
A D Bmin
We had seen just a few hours ago
G A Dsus D
As the angels sang a song of joy.
[Chorus]
G D/F# D
Not even the Bethlehem dawn
Emin D/F# AsusA
Could compare to the Light it revealed
G D/F# Bmin
Not even the Bethlehem sun
G D/F# F Emin
That unveiled the Son of God, sleeping in a cattle stall
G D/F# F Emin
The Almighty God, humbled to save us all
Emin A (G A D) D
Not even the Bethlehem dawn
G A D
The cry of a baby shatters the silence
G A F#/A# Bmin
Can you believe that same voice makes my heart beat
G A D Bmin
And the tears in His eyes, and in His mothers and fathers
G A Dsus D
Are tears for all mankind
[Chorus]
G D/F# D
Not even the Bethlehem dawn
Emin D/F# AsusA
Could compare to the Light it revealed
G D/F# Bmin
Not even the Bethlehem sun
G D/F# F Emin
That unveiled the Son of God, sleeping in a cattle stall
G D/F# F Emin
The Almighty God, humbled to save us all
Emin A (G A D) D
Not even the Bethlehem dawn
[Interlude]
G A F#min Bmin G A F#min Bmin G A Dsus D
[Bridge]
Bmin G D/F# A
this little baby is crying my tears for me
Bmin G D/F# A
this little baby is bathing in my shame
C#min A E/G# B
this little baby is giving up his glory
F#min Bsus B
to take my place; to light the way
[Chorus 2]
A E
Not even the Bethlehem dawn
F#min E B
Could compare to the Light it revealed
A E C#min
Not the Jerusalem sun
A E G D/F#
That unveiled the Son of God hanging on a cross
A E G D/F#
The Almighty God, dying to save the lost
A E G D/F#
And can you believe what He sacrificed for me
F#min B A B G#min C#min A B E
On that Bethlehem dawn
