The Morning 
By Clifford D. Cory 
(Intro – finger pick "Silent Night" in the key of A) 
A 
It was the night before Christmas 
D                    A 
And we sang Silent Night 

We exchanged gifts 
      E                       A 
By the glow of the fireplace light 

As I was feeling 
D                A 
So safe and so warm 

I wondered what it was like 
E7 
The morning Jesus was born 


We sang until past midnight 
The songs of joy and love 
Then bells started ringing 
Like a sign from above 
That now with the dawn 
It became Christmas morn 
I couldn't help thinking of 
The morning Jesus was born. 

I heard the sounds of young laughter 
And saw children playing outside 
Making snow angels 
And sharing sled rides 
And Johnny was passing around his new Christmas horn 
And I felt all the love 
From the morning Jesus was born.
