well the news ( F ) spread through jerusalem , tonight ( Dm ) a child is born
there are ( Gm ) shepherds fallin’ to their knees , and an – ( A# ) – gels blowin’ horns ( C )
but in their ( F ) golden halls , the pharisees ( Dm ) scoffed and drank their wine
they said , “it’s ( Gm ) only hebrew prophesy , we don’t ( A# ) care
and besides , ( C ) he’s just ( Am ) a kid , ( A# ) ( C ) that’s all he is ( F )
( Dm ) one more pebble in ( C ) the grav – ( C# ) el , one ( Dm ) more rumor in ( G ) the rabble
how can he be king? ( C ) he’s just a kid” ( F ) | ( Dm ) ( C )
well in ( F ) no time , it seemed the world was ( Dm ) knockin’ on his door
performin’ ( Gm ) miracles and wonders they had nev – ( A# ) – er seen before ( C )

i’ll need ( Dm ) your strength to see ( C ) me through ( C# ) it , ( Dm ) if it is your will ( G ) i’ll do it
but how can i be king? ( C ) i’m just a kid” ( F )
now i think ( G# ) about the ( A# ) baby ( C ) and the ( F ) man at christmas time
of ( G# ) mothers , sons and ( Gm ) fathers ( C ) and ( F ) children just like mine
about the ( G# ) power and un – ( A# ) selfishness , love ( F ) and sacrifice
the gift ( G# ) that we were ( D# ) given and the price ( C ) ( D )
and how the news ( G ) spread through jerusalem , to – ( Em ) night a child is born
there are ( Am ) shepherds falling to their knees , and an – ( C ) – gels blowin’ horns ( D )
i wonder how ( G ) on earth the pharisees could ( Em ) scoff and drink their wine
and say , “he’s ( Am ) only hebrew prophesy , we don’t ( C ) care
and besides , ( D ) he’s ( Bm ) just a kid , ( C ) ( D ) that’s all he is ( G )
( Em ) one more pebble in ( D ) the gra – ( D# ) vel , one ( Em ) more rumor in ( A ) the rabble
and how can he be king? ( D ) he’s just a kid” ( G )
