No decorations that I could see

              G7                    C
There were no presents there was no tree

                          F
From the sky there came a glow

              C    G7      C
One Christmas Eve  so long ago


                  F           C
No shopping malls no flashing lights

             G7               C
Just one big star to fill the night

                           F
The light of love began to grow

One Christmas Eve  long ago


             G7                 C
That's how I feel it down in my soul

               F      G7            C
Much more than silver and more than gold

       B7                   Em
So far beyond mere words to say

    C       D7                                    G7
The gift of love was ours on that first Christmas day


       C       F        C
No decorations no fancy light

           G7                   C
He came in silence on that holy night

                            F
That's how it was somehow I know

              C    G7    C
One Christmas Eve  long ago
