[Verse 1]
     D                   G
This child secretly comes in the night
        A7                 D
Oh this Child, hiding a heavenly light
                            G
Oh this Child, coming to us like a stranger
A7            D
This heavenly Child


[Chorus]
     G                      G
This Child, heaven come down now
              A7
To be with us here
             D             G
Heavenly love and mercy appear
             D                Asus4

A                D
To this heavenly Child

This Child, rising on us like the sun

Oh this child, given to light everyone
                            G
Oh this Child, guiding our feet on the pathway
A7            D
To peace on earth


[Verse 3]
     D                   G
This Child, raising the humble and poor
        A7                 D
Oh this Child, making the proud ones to fall
                            G
This Child, filling the hungry with good things
A7            D
This heavenly Child

To be with us here
             D             G
Heavenly love and mercy appear
             D                Asus4
Softly in awe and wonder come near
A                D
To this heavenly Child
A                D
To this heavenly Child
