Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well shepherds watched their flocks by night
All seated on the ground
The angel of the Lord came down
And glory shone around
[Verse 2]
Fear not, said he, for mighty dread had
Seized their troubled mind
Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind
[Verse 3]
To you in David's town this day is
Born of David's line
The savior who is Christ the Lord
And this shall be the sign
[Verse 4]
The heavenly Babe you there shall find
To human view displayed
And meanly wrapped in swathing bands
And in a manger laid
[Verse 5]
Thus spake the seraph, and forthwith
Appeared a shining throng
Of angels praising God, who thus
Addressed their joyful song
[Verse 6]
All glory be to God on high
And on the earth be peace
Good will henceforth from heaven to men
Begin and never cease
