Shepherds In The Field Abiding

Shepherds in the field abiding
Tell us, when the seraph bright
Greeted you with wondrous tiding
What ye saw and heard that night

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo

We beheld it is no fable
God incarnate, King of bliss
Swathed and cradled in a stable
And the angel strain was this

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo

Choristers on high were singing
Jesus and His Virgin birth
Heavenly bells, the while a-ringing
Peace, good will to men on earth

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo

Thanks, good herdmen, true your story
Have with you to Bethlehem
Angels hymn the King of glory
Carol we with you and them

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
