They came from near, they came from far,

Following a distant star to where He lay,
D A
Not being sure of what it meant, but

Knowing it was heaven sent,

They made their way,

And the creatures gathered 'round

And didn't make a sound,
D C G
And the angels cried.

The angels knew what was to come,

Knowing of His destiny,

Came tears of love.
