Bethlehem Dawn - Chords

[Printable version]

INTRO: G – A – F#min - Bmin – G – A - Dsus - D


G                          A                    D     -
The sunrise was beautiful this morning
G                         A                F#/A#             Bmin    G
But somehow it seemed that everything was darker than the sky
               A              D            Bmin
We had seen just a few hours ago
            G                    A          Dsus - D
As the angels sang a song of joy.


CHORUS:
                       G               D/F# - D
Not even the Bethlehem dawn
                Emin            D/F#         Asus-A
Could compare to the Light it revealed
                      G               D/F# - Bmin
Not even the Bethlehem sun
               G                     D/F#    F               Emin
That unveiled the Son of God, sleeping in a cattle stall
       G            D/F#   F                          Emin
The Almighty God, humbled to save us all
                     Emin   A     (G – A – D) D
Not even the Bethlehem dawn


G                   A      D    -
The cry of a baby shatters the silence
G                A                      F#/A#              Bmin
Can you believe that same voice makes my heart beat
               G               A                          D      Bmin
And the tears in His eyes, and in His mother’s and father’s
          G         A              Dsus - D
Are tears for all mankind

REPEAT CHORUS


Interlude: 
G – A – F#min – Bmin – G – A – F#min - Bmin – G – A - Dsus - D


BRIDGE:
Bmin             G           D/F#                        A
THIS LITTLE BABY IS CRYING MY TEARS FOR ME
Bmin             G           D/F#                     A
THIS LITTLE BABY IS BATHING IN MY SHAME
C#min          A          E/G#                      B
THIS LITTLE BABY IS GIVING UP HIS GLORY
       F#min                     Bsus            B
TO TAKE MY PLACE; TO LIGHT THE WAY


CHORUS 2:
                        A              E
Not even the Bethlehem dawn
                F#min          E               B
Could compare to the Light it revealed
             A                E – C#min
Not the Jerusalem sun 
              A                        E       G             D/F#
That unveiled the Son of God hanging on a cross
           A           E      G                     D/F#
The Almighty God, dying to save the lost
          A             E                    G                D/F#
And can you believe what He sacrificed for me
             F#min   B      A – B – G#min – C#min – A – B - E
On that Bethlehem dawn
