While shepherds watched their flocks by night...
C7 F C Dm7 G C
All sea-ted on the ground,
F Bb C7 F Bb A
The angel of the Lord came down,
Bb Gm7 C7 F
And glory shone a.. round.

Fear not,” said he, for mighty dread...

Had seized their troubled minds;

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

Addressed their joyful song

All glory be to God on high,
C7 F C Dm7 G C
And to the Earth be peace;
F Bb C7 F Bb A
Goodwill henceforth from Heav’n to men
Bb Gm7 C7 F
Begin and never cease
