[F] [Dm] [C]
[Em] [D]
[G] [G]
[C] [F] Something's happening [C] in Bethlehem
From a stable a lovely light [G] flows [C] within
Is that a baby [F] crying?
[C] There's [G#m] excitement [Am] in the wind
[C] Something's [F] happening [C] in [Am]
Bethlehem
He [A] was born in [Em] Bethlehem.
Shepherds declared that angels announced his birth.
Now [F] that caused a stir.
When [Dm] men came asking,
Where is he that is [Em] born King of the Jews?
We've [C] seen his star and have come to worship [Gm] him.
Herod was filled with [C] wrath.
The babe is now a [F] man teaching a new doctrine
With compassion and authority.
[Dm] The crowds are following him.
[G] The chief priests and elders are [C] outraged.
There's a mob outside of Pilate's hall today.
[F]
[A#] Something's happening [F] in [A#] Pilate's hall
On [F] the porch Pilate pleads with an [C] angry [F] mob
In this man [A#] called Jesus I [F] can [C#m] find no [Dm] fault
[F] [A#]
[F] Something's happening in [C]
[Dm] Pilate's hall
I watched as his [Am] beaten, disfigured body
Fell beneath the load of the cross.
His [A#] mother ran to him and the soldiers [Gm] pushed her away.
[Am]
I heard the hammer fall.
I knew [F] the nails had been driven and he was [G#] on the cross.
The stoppers kept chanting.
I heard him [C#] speak words of forgiveness.
[A#m] There was an earthquake and a darkness [D#m] over the earth.
Then I heard a cry from the cross,
It [C#] is finished.
[F#] We watched him [D#m] die,
But somewhere [G#] deep within my being I know
This is not over.
[C#]
[F#] Something's happening [C#] at [F#] Joseph's grave
Where [C#] Jesus of Nazareth has [G#] laid [C#] three days
[Fm] Very early
[F#] in the morning,
[C#] Hell [F]
[A#m] begins to quake.
[C#]
[F#] [C#] [G#] Come [C#]
[A#m] and feast [F#] your eyes [C#] on an [G#] [C#] empty tomb.
[A#m] Come and smell [F#] the fragrance [C#] where the sheriff was blown.
[G#] Then [C#] the Lamb
[F#] resurrected will [C#] come [F] into [A#m] view.
[F#] Something [C#] will happen deep inside [G#] [C#] you.
[F#] Something's happening [C#] where Jesus [G#] lives.
[A#m]
Something's [F]
[A#m] [G#m] [C#]
[F#] happening [C#] at Joseph's [A#m] grave.
