Marty Haugen - Carol At The Manger Chords

[Verse 1]
G7   C          F      C
Holy Child with-in the manger,
      Am     Dm7  G
Long ago yet ever near;
        Am        Dm    G     Am
Come as friend to every stran-ger,
        Dm7      G7    C
Come as hope for every fear.
Am     F        C        G
As you lived to heal the broken,
G         F        C        G
Greet the outcast, free the bound,
E7     Am        G      F
As you taught us love unspoken,
C        Dm7           G7  C
Teach us now where you are found.


[Verse 2]
G7    C       F        C
Once again we tell the story--
         Am       Dm7     G
How your love for us was shown,
         Am    Dm      G   Am
When the image of your glory
        Dm7        G7  C
Wore an image like our own.
Am      F       C         G
Come, enlighten with your wisdom,
G         F       C         G
Come, and fill us with your grace.
E7      Am      G       F
May the fire of your compassion
C      Dm7        G7  C
Kindle every land and race.


[Verse 3]
G7   C          F      C
Holy Child within the manger,
        Am   Dm7      G
Lead us ever in  your way,
      Am     Dm    G     Am
So we see in every stranger
        Dm7     G7 C
How you come to us today.
Am     F         C      G
In our lives and in our living
G        F          C       G
Give us strength to live as you,
E7       Am           G     F
That our hearts might be forgiving
C       Dm7            G7  C
And our spirits strong and true.
