D                  
All the streets are filled with laughter and light
       G            A   
And the music of the season,
       D                           
And the merchants' windows are all bright
         D/F#         Bm
With the faces of the children,
       G       A       D         
And the families hurrying to their homes
       G   A          D
As the sky darkens and freezes
       G    A               D
Will be gathering around the hearths and tables
       D/F#             A7
Giving thanks for God's graces
       G            A    D
And the birth of the rebel Jesus.
