VERSE:

6  6  -6  6 -5  5  -4  -5  -6

See him lying on a bed of straw

4    -3   -4       6   -5     5    -4    4   5    6

A draughty stable with an open door

 6    6  -6  6    -5   5       -4     -5     -6

Mary cra-d-ling the babe she bore

  4      -3     -4   6   -5  5   -4      4 

The prince of glory is his name


CHORUS:

 7      7    -8 7  -7  -6    6    7   7

O now carry me to Bethlehem

 6   -5    -7     -7       -5  5   6    6

To see the Lord appear to men

  6      6     -6   6    -5    5   -4  -5    -6

Just as poor as was the stable then

   4      -3     -4   6   -5    5    -4        4

The prince of glory when he came
