They came from near, they came from far, 
Bm          A                G              
Following a distant star to where He lay,  
    D                      A 
Not being sure of what it meant, but  
Bm                     A 
Knowing it was heaven sent,

They made their way, 
 
 
Em And the creatures gathered 'round G And didn't make a sound, D C G And the angels cried.
