“Children Again” by Jason Gray
SML
[Intro]
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo,
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo
[Verse 1]
C F G
We found one in a closet, one in a drawer
C F G
There's no hiding place we won't find anymore
C F G
We'd shake every present for any small clue
C F G
Of what lies beneath the words "from me to you"
[Refrain]
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo
[Verse 2]
C F G
But for every present left under a tree
C F G
There are things that we hoped for and never received
C F G
The years and the yearning can make us forget
C F G
To be filled with wonder instead of regret
[Pre-Chorus]
F C Dm G
But Christmas is calling again, leading us to Bethlehem
[Chorus]
C
Where a child is waiting for you
G
When grown-up dreams don't come true
Dm F
It sounds cra-zy, but a ba-by
F G C
can make us all children again..
[Refrain]
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo,
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo
[Verse 3]
C F G
When you want to forgive but the wound is so deep
C F G
And you ache for forgiveness for the secrets you keep
C F G
When the flower of your heart only feels like a thorn
C F G
And you long for the child that you were before
[Pre-Chorus]
F C Dm G
Christmas is calling again, leading you to Bethlehem
[Chorus]
C
Where a child is waiting for you
G
When grown-up dreams don't come true
Dm F
It sounds cra-zy, but a ba-by
F G C
can make us all children again..
[Refrain]
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo,
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo
[Bridge]
Dm Am
Afraid to be strangers, we circle the manger
F C
and kneel down beside it again..
G
But He wishes that we would crawl in.......
[Chorus]
C
Where a child is waiting for you
G
When grown-up dreams don't come true
Dm F
It sounds cra-zy, that a ba-by...
C
Would ask for our hearts made of stone
G
And then give us a heart like His own
Dm F
If we let Him, He wil be-gin
F G C
To make us all children again
[Refrain]
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo,
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo
F G C
We will be children again!
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo,
C F G
Oh-oo-Oh-oo-oh-Oh-oo
[Verse 4]
C F G
God wrapped a gift that He hid in the world
C F G
Deep in the womb of an innocent girl
C F G
But when we were ready and on a dirt floor
C F G
Love found a way in and left open the door....
