  			Intro:  and Chorus G C F C Am G F G F G Em Am G Dm G7 C  

      C     G              C   F   C                  Am               G      F    G   
A ray of hope flickers in the sky  a tiny star lights up way up high   
       F               G                Em                         Am               G     Dm      G7          C   G7 C 
All across the land, dawns a brand new morn this comes to pass when a child is born   
                G               C   F   C                           Am                G       F    G  
A silent wish sails the seven seas the winds of change whisper in the trees   
         F               G                  Em                          Am                G     Dm       G7      C     G7 C 
And the walls of doubt crumble, tossed and torn this comes to pass when a child is born   
              G             C   F   C                Am                               G   F   G  
A rosy hue settles all around  you've got the feel you're on solid ground   
         F                         G                Em     Am               G        Dm       G7        C  G7 C  
For a spell or two, no-one seems forlorn  this comes to pass when a child is born   
          C     G              C   F   C                Am               G   F   G  
It's all a dream, an illusion now it must come true, sometime soon somehow   
       F               G                Em                         Am               G      Dm      G7         C   G7 C 
All across the land, dawns a brand new morn this comes to pass when a child is born  
          C     G              C   F   C                  Am               G   F   G  
A ray of hope flickers in the sky a tiny star lights up way up high   
       F               G                Em                         Am               G    Dm        G7        C   G7 C 
All across the land, dawns a brand new morn this comes to pass when a child is born
