Intro:  F  C  F  G  F  G  C  G

                    C
How could it be
                         G
This baby in my arms
              Em                     Am
Sleeping now so peacefully
                   F                     G
The Son of God the angel said
                    C      F G
How could it be?

           C                          G
Lord, I know he's not my own
                Em                    Am
Not of my flesh, not of my bone
                 F                  G
Still Father let this baby be
                       C      Em
The son of my love

           Am                                       F
Father show me where I fit into this plan of yours
          G                           C    Em
How can a man be father to the Son of God?
               Am                                      F
Lord, for all my life I've been a simple carpenter
        G
How can I raise a king?
        F                  G
How can I raise a king?

                    C
He looks so small
                                    G
His face and hands so fair
                      Em                              
And when he cries the sun just seems to
             Am
             disappear
                     F
But when he laughs
              G
It shines again
                    C     Em
How could it be?

           Am                                       F
Father show me where I fit into this plan of yours
                  G                                         C      Em
How can a man be father to the Son of God?
               Am                                      F
Lord, for all my life I've been a simple carpenter
        G
How can I raise a king?
        F                  G
How can I raise a king?


                   C
How could it be
                         G
This baby in my arms
              Em                     Am
Sleeping now so peacefully
                   F                     G
The Son of God the angel said
                    C      F   G
How could it be? 
                    C      F   G   C
How could it be?

Going into the chorus (the Son of my love) instead of C Em, it should be C Esus7 E. Of course, same for the second verse (How can it be?).

C Esus7 E
The son of my love

And intro should be F C F G F G F G
