Lyrics
And there were shepherds in the fields keeping watch by night
When all around them suddenly came an awesome light
Do not be afraid, I bring tidings of joy
Said the mighty angel of this new baby boy
Then all at once they heard a sound
Of angels who had gathered round
They were all together praising God and saying
Glory
Glory
And when the shepherds heard the news they were quick to go
Off to Bethlehem to see of who these angels told
And when they saw the baby they had only one thought
To spread the news to everyone about who they saw
And when the shepherds did return
For all the things that they had heard
They were altogether praising God and singing
Glory
Glory
Glory
Glory
To God in the highest
To God in the highest
And on the earth peace to men
On whom His favor rests
We sing glory our Messiah
Jesus
He has come
He has come
He has come
Oh He has come
He has come
He has come
And there were shepherds in the fields
Keeping watch by night
