Song: What the Shepherds Saw
Lyrics: ai rewritten by Aaron J. Weaver
Music & voices: ai

[verse1]
Shepherds keeping watch of their flocks near,
While starry night kept silent, not a sound.
When suddenly, a glorious light did appear,
And glory shone, the Lord's own glory 'round.

They were afraid, a terror deep and no sound,
But then an angel spoke with words so clear:
"Fear not, good news for all people around,
A joyful message, banishing all fear".

[verse2]
"For in the town of David, born this day,
A Savior waits, the Christ, the Lord indeed.
You'll find the babe in swaddling clothes, away
In manger laid, to meet a world in need".

Then with the one, a multitude did rise,
A heavenly host, in chorus loud and grand:
"All glory to our God above the skies!
And peace on earth, good will in every land".

[verse3]
The angels gone, the shepherds made their way,
With haste they ran, their hearts a-fluttering.
They found the child, just as the words did say,
Told all what they'd heard, their message bring.

And all who heard did wonder at the word,
The tale the simple shepherds did impart.
But Mary kept these things, no detail blurred,
And pondered them, locked safely in her heart.

[chorus]
The shepherds then returned to their sheep,
Their hearts overflowed with praise and awe.
They glorified God, laughed and weep,
For all the wonders on that night they saw.

The shepherds then returned to their sheep,
Their hearts overflowed with praise and awe.
They glorified God, laughed and weep,
For all the wonders on that night they saw.
