A                               E           E
Born in a manger in a stable in Bethlehem
                                           A             A
What a way to begin the incarnation of the great I am
                                                D         Bm
Placing Mary's little baby in the center of the universal plan
             E
It brings us all back together like birds of a feather,
                           A     A  A  E  A
Every boy, girl, woman and man

Satan was right at his heels when he came to Earth
                                                   A                  A
He tried to stop him one way or another, from the time of his birth.
                                                                    D            Bm
Just as when he thought he had succeeded, somethin' happened at the cross of Calvary,
              E
That turned defeat into victory,
                                                 A     A
Restoring the family, the Father, the Savior and me


[Chorus]
E                            A
And too many times we get discouraged
Bm                                  E     E
Try to fight a battle that we can't win
    A              E                D                  Bm
And too often I've found,we tend to carry our burdens around
Bm                                         E      E
But Jesus said we've got to let 'em off on him

Heaven rejoices every time a lost child comes home

Don't you know there's a place in the kingdom for those who roam
                                                        D              Bm
So if you're looking for an answer it was spoken long before the world began
             E
It brings us all back together like birds of a feather,
                           A     A
