1. While shepherds kept their watching o'er silent flocks by night,
Behold throughout the heavens there shone a Holy Light.
2. The shepherds feared and trembled when lo! Above the earth,
Rang out the angel Chorus that hailed our Saviour's birth.
3. Down in a lowly manger the humble Christ was born
And brought us God's salvation that blessed Christmas morn!
Yes Jesus Christ Is Born
