My wife and I did it two weeks ago in our church. mp3 attached. I did not have a chord chart, so I just did it by ear in D, Standard tuning


Kind of like

It was not a silent (G5) night) There was blood on the (D) ground (Dsus D)

You could hear a woman (G5)cry in the alleyway that (A)night on the streets of David's (D) town (Dsus D)

And the stable was not (Bm) clean, and the cobblestones were (F#m) cold. And little Mary full of (G5) grace with the tears upon her (A) face had no mother's hand to hold (D Dsus D)

Chorus:

It was a labor of (G5) pain, it was cold sky a (Bm) bove. But for the girl on the ground in the (G5) dark Every beat of her beautiful (A) heart was a labor of (D) Love Dsus D...

and so on.

There are more complex ways to do it, but that was the quick down and dirty way for me...

Have a listen..
