While shepherds watched their flocks by night...

            G       C
All sea-ted on  the ground,

F         Bb     F
The angel of the Lord came down,

          G         C
And glory shone a.. round.

C    Dm                 F
Fear not,” said he, for mighty dread...

Had seized their troubled minds;

C7   F       Dm       Bb
Glad tidings of great joy I bring,

   F       Am  F
To you and all mankind.

To you in David’s town this day

Is born of David’s line

The Saviour, who is Christ the Lord,

               G      C
And this shall be the sign

C    Dm                F
The heav’nly Babe you there shall find

To human view displayed,

C7  F      Dm         Bb
All meanly wrapped in swathing bands,

    F    Am     F
And in a manger laid

F               C      Dm       F
Thus spake the Seraph; and forthwith

           G       C
Appeared a shining throng

F         Bb       F
Of angels praising God, who thus

                G      C
Addressed their joyful song

C   Dm          F
All glory be to God on high,

    Bb              C
And on the Earth be peace;

C7   F        Dm         Bb
Goodwill henceforth from Heav’n to men

  F       Am    F
Begin and never cease
