Verse 1
F               Bb              F               C
Clear in the darkness a light shines in Bethlehem:
F               Bb              F          C
Angels are singing, their sound fills the air.
Dm              Gm          Bb          F               
Wise men have journeyed to greet their Messiah;
Dm              Gm   Bb         C
But only a mother and baby lie there.

Chorus
F       Bb  C   F
'Ave Maria, Ave Maria':
Dm              Gm      Bb              C F     
Hear the soft lullaby the angel hosts sing.
F       Bb  C   F
'Ave Maria, Ave Maria,
Dm      Gm              Bb C     F
Maiden, and mother of Jesus our King'.

Verse 2
F               Bb              F       C
Where are his courtiers, and who are his people?
F            Bb          F              C
Why does he bear neither sceptre nor crown?
Dm              Gm      Bb                  F   
Shepherds his courtiers, the poor for his people,
Dm              Gm              Bb         C
With peace as his sceptre and love for his crown.

Verse 3
F               Bb              F               C
What though your treasures are not gold or incense?
F          Bb           F               C
Lay them before him with hearts full of love.
Dm              Gm              Bb           F  
Praise to the Christ child, and praise to his mother
Dm              Gm      Bb          C
Who bore us a Saviour by grace from above.
