Verse 2

He followed light and came down to a share,

A bright light of silver shone round his head,
Am C Dm Am Dm
And he had the face of an angel, and they were afraid...
Verse 3 (Continues same as Verse 1 and 2)
(Same Chords as last two
Then the stranger spoke, he said do not fear,
I come from a planet a long way from here,
And I bring a message for mankind to hear,
And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air...

The stranger returned and said now I must fly,
When two thousand years of your time has gone by,
This song will begin once again, to a babys cry...

And a star is moving somewhere, the time is nearly here,
Am C Dm Am Dm
This song will begin once again, to a babys cry...
