GOh my Lord, you sent your son to save us
GOh my Lord, your very self you gave us
DOh my Lord, that sin may not enslave us
GAnd love may reign once more
[Oh My Lord - verse 2]
GOh my Lord, when in the crib they found him
GOh my Lord, a golden halo crowned him
DOh my Lord, they gathered all around him
GTo see him and adore
[Oh My Lord - verse 3]
GOh my Lord, with the child's adoration
GOh my Lord, there came great jubilation
DOh my Lord, and full of admiration
GThey realized what they had
(Until the sun falls from the sky)
[Oh My Lord - verse 4]
GOh my Lord, they had become to doubt you
(So praise the Lord)
GOh my Lord, what did they know about you
(He is the truth forever)
DOh my Lord, but they were lost without you
(So praise the Lord)
GThey needed you so bad
(His light is shining on us all)
[Oh My Lord - verse 5]
GOh my Lord, with the child's adoration
(Oh my Lord)
(So praise the Lord)

(So praise the Lord)
GThey realized what they had
(Until the sun falls from the sky)
