Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Did it feel  like a night any different
 Then at least  a million before
 Was there  any rare expectation
 Like there was some  kind of something in store
 Did the sky  have to  hold back the thunder
 Did the moon  find new reasons  to glow
 Could the children  somehow  sense the  wonder
 Two thousand  Decembers ago
 Were the sheep  as amazed as the shepherds
 At the new  star that lit up the sky
 Did the willow  trees whisper excitement
 To the rivers  and streams passing by
 Did the joy  ricochet  off the mountains
 'Til it filled  up the valleys  below
 Did all  the world sense  love abounding
 Two thousand  Decembers  ago
 Was anyone  able to look  at the stable
 And not  see a child  but a King
 I wish I could hear back over  the years
 As heaven  & nature  sing,  heaven and nature  sing.
 Did the walls of the barn start to tremble
 With a glory they could not contain
 Did anyone wake with the feeling
 Of peace that they could not explain
 Oh the love must have been overwhelming
 As it warmed everyone in its flow
 For all of the earth is still telling
 Of two thousand Decembers ago
 Was anyone able to look at the stable
 And not see a child but a king
 I wish I could hear back over the years
 As heaven and nature sing, heaven and nature sing
 Oh the love must have been overwhelming
 Two thousand Decembers ago
