[Verse 1]
[G]Oh,[D][G][Em][G][C]
[Am]what[C] a p[G]re[D]cious pr[G]omise[D]
Oh, what [G]a gift of l[D]ove[G]
An [D]angel [G]tells a vir[D]gin
that she's gonna [G]have a son
[C]An [Am]d though it's a p[G]recious prom[D]ise,
she won[Em]ders how can this [G]be?[Bm]
[D]What [C]will the peo[Csus2]ple say
[D]and what if Jos[G]eph can't believe?
And her [Am]questions and her fears are [Cm]met
with an overwhelming [G]joy that
[D]God has chosen [Em]her.
[C]Oh, a precious promise
[D]Mary [Am]waits[G] as [Am]Heaven[D]
comes [G]to [D]earth[Em][C][Csus2]
[C]Oh,[Am] what[G] a precious promise
[D]Oh,[Em] what a gift of lov[Bm]e
[C]Joseph makes his [D]choice to do
What [G]few men would have done
To make [Am]Mary his bride
When she's [Cm]already carrying
A [G]child that [D]isn't his [Em]own
[D]Oh, [C]what a precious pro[D]mise
[Am]Mary and the [D]child[G][D]
[Em]And shepherds stand on a h[Bm]illside,
Their hearts ra[C]cing with the
[D]news the angels [C]told them.
[G]A s[C]tar[Am]'s l[G]ight[Em]
fills up [G]the [Bm]dark sky
As the [C]night of precious
prom[G]ise is un[C]folding
[G]Oh, what a precious [D]promise,
[Em]oh, what a g[G]ift of l[D]ove.[Bm]
[D]The [Am]waiting [Em]now is o[D]ver
and the time has [G]finally come
[C]For [G]the God[Am] who made this world
to [Cm]roll back the curtain
And un[G]veil His passion
[D]for the heart of [Em]men
[C]Oh, what a precious [D]promise
Ly[Am]ing in a m[D]anger
[Ebdim]in Bethle[Em]hem
[C]Oh, what a precious [D]promise
[Am]Lying in a [D]manger [Dsus4]in[D]
[G]Bethlehem[D][Em][Bm][G][Am][Cm]
