Empty manger, perfect stranger, about to be born
GDAEmGDA
Into darkness, sadness, desperate madness, creation so torn
GDAEmGDA
We were so lost on earth, no peace, no worth, no way to escape

In fear, no faith, no hope, no grace, and no light

But that was the night before Christmas
Interlude : GDAEmGDAVerse 2 :

Warm hay, cold sweat, a mother, not yet, praying Godspeed the dawn
GDAEmGDA
She looks to her man, holding her hand, they wonder how long
GDAEmGDA
And the shepherds, wise men come to find them, and bow to a king
