A           E        A
We thought you’d come with a crown of gold
              D           E        A
A string of pearls and a cashmere robe
                  F#m        E    D
We thought you’d clinch and iron fist
               E   D           A
And rain like fire on the politics

[Chorus]
                D               A
But without a sword, no armored guard
           E                 A
But common born in mother’s arms
           D            F#m
The government now rests upon
                E D          A
The shoulder’s of this baby son

[Verse 2]
             A     E          A
Have you no room inside your heart?
             D     E        A
The inn is full, the out is dark
            F#m         E    D
But upon profane shines sacred sun
       E   D             A
Not ashamed to be one of us

[Chorus]
                D               A
But without a sword, no armored guard
           E                 A
But common born in mother’s arms
           D            F#m
The government now rests upon
                E D          A
The shoulder’s of this baby son

[Bridge]
    D       A
Gloria, Hallelu
             E
Christ, the Lord
                 A
We’ve longed for You
   D       F#m
Gloria, Hallelu
          E  D
Christ, the Lord
                 A
We’ve longed for You

[Chorus]
                D               A
But without a sword, no armored guard
           E                 A
But common born in mother’s arms
           D            F#m
The government now rests upon
                E D          A
The shoulder’s of this baby son
