While shepherds watched their flocks by night
Author: Nahum Tate (1652-1715) Meter: Irregular Appears in 1,100 hymnals Lyrics: 1 While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
all seated on the ground,
the angel of the Lord came down,
and glory shone around.
2 'Fear not,' said he (for mighty dread
had seized their troubled mind);
'glad tidings of great joy I bring
to you and all mankind.
3 'To you in David's town this day
is born of David's line
a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord;
and this shall be the sign:
4 'the heavenly babe you there shall find
to human view displayed,
all meanly wrapped in swathing bands,
and in a manger laid.'
5 Thus spake the seraph; and forthwith
appeared a shining throng
of angels praising God, who thus
addressed their joyful song:
6 'All glory be to God on high,
and to the earth be peace;
good will henceforth from heaven to men
begin and never cease.' Topics: Angels; Children and All-Age Worship; Christmas; Christmas Day; Church Year Christmas Scripture: Luke 2:1-20 Used With Tune: CRANBROOK
While shepherds watched their flocks by night
Come Ye that Love the Lord
Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Meter: 6.6.8.8.6.6.6 Appears in 1,788 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come ye that love the Lord,
And let your joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord
Join in a song with sweet accord
While ye surround the throne,
While ye surround the throne,
While ye surround the throne.
2 Let those refuse to sing,
Who never knew our God;
But children of the heav'nly King,
But children of the heav'nly King,
Shall speak their joys abroad,
Shall speak their joys abroad,
Shall speak their joys abroad.
3 This aweful God is ours,
Our Father and our Love;
He will send down His heav'nly pow'rs,
He will send down His heav'nly pow'rs
To carry us above,
To carry us above,
To carry us above.
4 Then let our songs abound,
And ev'ry tear be dry;
We're marching through Immanuel's ground,
We're marching through Immanuel's ground
To fairer worlds on High,
To fairer worlds on high,
To fairer worlds on high.
