They Stood In Silent Prayer

C  G   Am  Em   Dm F   Am E

Am     Am

[Verse 1]
    Am                         G  
The little lambs were standing 
     E             Am
there beside the holy babe
     C                             
They gazed with awe upon the child 
      G                  C
while shepherds knelt to pray
     E                 Am         
They seemed at once to understand 
    G            C
the wonder lying there
    E7             Am          D 
And all around the manger they 
       E      Am
stood in silent prayer

[Chorus]
F  G               C    F  G  
Oh yes the Lord is come oh yes
             C
 the King is here
    E7             Am          D 
And all around the manger they 
       E      Am
stood in silent prayer
 G    Am    G    Am
(Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah)

E7  Am

[Verse 2]
Am                        G      
The cattle grazing in the fields 
      E7                 Am
could hear the shepherds pray
     C                             
They turned and slowly came to find
     G               C
 the stranger in the hay
     E7                   Am      
They bowed their heads in silence 
      G              C
there was no sign of fear
    E7             Am          G 
And all around the manger they 
       E      Am
stood in silent prayer

[Chorus]
F  G               C    F  G  
Oh yes the Lord is come oh yes
             C
 the King is here
    E7             Am          D 
And all around the manger they 
       E      Am
stood in silent prayer
 C    F     E    D     Bm    E    F7
(Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah)

Am   Am

[Verse 3]
Am                      G         
The ass the oxen soon appeared for
 E              Am
 they had been afraid
     C              Am      
They could not understand the 
            D    G       C
gatherin' everyone had made
    E                 Am          
And then they saw the Christ Child
     G               C
 now sleeping in his bed
   E                  Am          
At once they knew the meaning and 
D      E           Am
slowly bowed their heads

[Chorus]
F  G               C    F  G  
Oh yes the Lord is come oh yes
             C
 the King is here
    E7             Am          D 
And all around the manger they 
       E      Am
stood in silent prayer
 G    Am    G    Am    G    C  
(Hallelujah hallelujah 
   D   E   E
hallelujah)
