[Verse 1]
G Em C D
How do you capture the wind on the water?

How do you count all the stars in the sky?
Bm Em Am
How do you measure the love of a mother
Am C D G
Or how can you write down a baby's first cry?
[Chorus]

Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
C G Em D
Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn
C Em Am G
Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo
G Em D G
Angels are singing; the Christ child is born
[Verse 2]
G Em C D
Shepherds and wise men will kneel and adore him
G Em C D
Seraphim round him their vigil will keep

Nations proclaim him their Lord and their Saviour
Am C D G
But Mary will hold him and sing him to sleep
[Chorus]
C Em D G
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow

Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn

Angels are singing; the Christ child is born
[Verse 3]
G Em C D
Find him at Bethlehem laid in a manger
G Em C D
Christ our Redeemer asleep in the hay
Bm Em Am
Godhead incarnate and hope of salvation
Am C D G
A child with his mother that first Christmas Day
[Chorus]
C Em D G
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
C G Em D
Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn
C Em Am G
Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Angels are singing; the Christ child is born
