Christmas Lullaby- Jason Robert Brown
From the “Songs for a New World”
Intro:
- – / – / (2x)
/ /
I’ll never have the power to control the land
/
Or conquer half the world, or claim the sun
/ /
I’ll never be the kind who simply waves her hand
/ /
And has a million people do the things I wish I’d done
But in the eyes of heaven, my place is assured
/4 - - -
I carry with me heaven’s grand design
Gloria, Gloria
I will sing the name of the Lord
/2
And he will make me shine

And I will be like Mother Mary
/
With a blessing in my soul
/2
And I will give the world my eyes
So they can see

And I will be like Mother Mary
/
With a blessing in my soul
/
And the future of the world
