My Heart Is Bethlehem Chords

(ver. 1)
John Berry
[Intro]
G    C    G   D  C
 
 
[Verse 1]
G       D         Em7   Bm7
  Eternity stepped into time,
C     D                   G    C
  And drew a mortal breath.
G      D         Em7           Bm7
  This mystery so  clearly seen
F     C               D
  The world could not forget
C                    D
  Now in the town of Bethlehem,
         G             Em7
  In the most unlikely place,
F                 Am   D           G
  God, the father wore   a child's face.
 
 
[Verse 2]
G         D                Em7      Bm7
  There's something in the heart of God,
C    D              G
  So purely meek and mild
G      D                Em7        Bm7
  That finds its best expression in
F     Em            Dsus4   D
  The longings of a child.
C                   D
  For every child's heart has hunger,
       Bm7                   Em
  To be  found and loved and known
F                Am             D         G
  By someone who would make their heart a home.
 
 
[Chorus]
              C
  My heart is Bethlehem
D             G             D
  I will make room for him.
  G           C
  This humble dwelling place
D             G
  Made worthy by his grace.
                C
  This child is still adored,
D            Bm7           Em7
  Because he still is born
              Am7
  Deep in the hearts of men,
D             G
  My heart is Bethlehem
 
 
[Verse 3]
G    D                 Em7         Bm7
  My wish for you this Christmas is,
C      D                  G
  That you would find true peace.
       D                 Em7        Bm7
  That silent nights are holy nights
F     C             D
  And wonders never cease.
C               D
  There's no re-membering,
      Bm7                Em7
  The ghost of Christmas past
F                       Am7        D        G
  For God's forgiveness finds your heart at last
 
 
[Chorus]
              C
  My heart is Bethlehem
D             G             D
  I will make room for him.
  G           C
  This humble dwelling place
D             G
  Made worthy by his grace.
                C
  This child is still adored,
D            Bm7           Em7
  Because he still is born
              Am7
  Deep in the hearts of men,
D             Am7
  To love and not condem
D             G
  My heart is Bethlehem
 
 
[Outro]
