While Shepherds Watched

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
While shepherds watched their flocks by night all seated on the ground
The angel of the Lord came down and glory shone around
Fear not, he said, for mighty dread had seized their trouble minds
Glad tidings of great joy I bring to you and all mankind, to you and all mankind
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia

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

The heavenly Babe you there shall find to human view displayed
And meanly wrapped in swathing bands and in a manger laid, and in a manger laid
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia

All glory be to God on high and to the earth be peace
Goodwill henceforth from heaven to men begin and never cease, begin and never cease
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
