Verse 1
E         A         E                    A
Mary, the Son of God is sleeping in your bed
E           A           E                E
It's a holy mighty crown that awaits His head
B                        A            E
But that's not who sweet Mary sees at all
           B             A          E
She sees a precious baby lying in a manger stall
       A
Oh but He deserves more than this
     E                      B
This child whose know God's kiss

Chorus
    E           A
And Mary, sweet Mary cries
    B                                 E            A-B-E
And prays inside her heart for God to dry her eyes
    E         A                B                  A
And Mary, she understands that we're all in God's hands
      B             A         B     E
Every mother, every child and sweet Mary cries


Verse 2, same chords
When the boy became a man they took Him away
He who was without sin was made to pay
When Mary looks upon the cross
She sees that precious baby lying in a manger stall
Oh but when she sees His face
Her heart can't help but break

Chorus

Bridge

With all this celebrating we get lost along the way
When we forget the reason why we have a Christmas Day

Chorus
