[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
G A
It was not a silent night
D
There was blood on the ground
G
You could hear a woman cry
A
In the alleyways that night
D
On the streets of David's town
Bm
And the stable was not clean
F#m
And the cobblestones were cold
G
And little Mary full of grace
A
With the tears upon her face
D
Had no mother's hand to hold
[Chorus]
D G
It was a labor of pain
A Bm
It was a cold sky above
D G
But for the girl on the ground in the dark
A
With every beat of her beautiful heart
D A/D D
It was a labor of love
[Verse 2]
G A
Noble Joseph by her side
D
Callused hands and weary eyes
G
There were no midwives to be found
A
On the streets of David's town
D
In the middle of the night
Bm
So he held her and he prayed
F#m
Shafts of moonlight on his face
G
But the baby in her womb
A
He was the maker of the moon
D/F#
He was the Author of the faith
A
That could make the mountains move
[Bridge]
D G A Bm F#m
[Chorus]
D G
It was a labor of pain
