-:::''1.''
-:While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
-:All seated on the ground,
-:The angel of the Lord came down,
-:And glory shone around,
-: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
-:To you and all mankind.
-:::''3.''
-:“To you, in David’s town, this day
-:Is born of David’s line
-:A Savior, who is Christ the Lord,
-:And this shall be the sign,
-: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,
-:And in a manger laid."
-:::''5.''
-:Thus spake the seraph and forthwith
-:Appeared a shining throng
-:Of angels praising God on high,
-:Who thus addressed their song,
-:Who thus addressed their 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,
-:Begin and never cease!”
