[Verse 1]
While 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," he said, for mighty dread
Had seized their troubled minds
"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 to the Earth, be peace
Goodwill henceforth from Heaven to men
Begin and never cease"
