Tune: Personent Hodie = Let resounding happen today
('Long ago, prophets knew')
Luke 2 v.8-14
********
Shepherds with sheep one night
In the field saw great sight
The angel of the Lord
Brought them a message, word
This the truth that they heard
Chrous
A Saviour born be
In Bethlehem, see
Great joy to all people
E'en unto nations all
God's glory did appear
Fear not, you shepherds here
Angel said, I do bring
Joyful, wondrous tidings
Heavenly host too sings - Chorus
This to you be the sign
You shall find the babe fine
Wrapped all in swaddling clothes
In manger, thus each knows
This how Christ to man* shows - Chorus
(*mankind)
Hosts above, they God praised
To Him gracious songs raised
Glory to God on high
On earth peace was their cry
Good will to men hereby - Chorus
