| This is a great song about a beautiful story of Jesus' life! I love to |
| both listen to and play it! If it looks a little odd, like at the |
| beginning. Those are all down-strokes! Do not strum that first chorus! |
| Secondly, this song is played on piano, and there's a couple more things |
| you can do on piano than on guitar. If you have any comments or questions |
| just e-mail me! |
