Verse 1:

C   G/B      Am       G       F
He  was her man; she was his wife

It brought him joy; he loved that Boy

But it wasn’t his       child; it wasn’t his child

Am          G               F                   Am   G
And like a father, he was strong, and kind and good

And I believe he did his best

It wasn’t easy for him, but he did all he could

He took His fa  -  ther’s hand
C    G/B      Am         G       F
And soon the world would all know why

It wasn’t his child;   it wasn’t his child

And I believe He did His best
Am         G                 F            Am
It wasn’t easy for Him, but He did all He could
        Am           G       F
He grew up with His hands in wood
        Am            G        F
And He died with His hands in wood
        Am         G         Dsus - D
He was God’s child;  He was God’s     child

And late one win  -  ter   night
