Near Bethlehem did shepherds keep |
|
Their flocks of lambs and feeding sheep |
|
To whom God's angels did appear |
|
Which put the shepherds in great fear."Arise and go", the angels said"To Bethlehem, be not afraidFor there you'll find this happy morn'A princely Babe, sweet Jesus born" |
|
There were three wise men from afar |
|
Directed by a glorious star, |
|
And on they wandered night and day |
|
Until they came where |
|
Jesus lay. |
|
And when they came unto that place |
|
Where our beloved |
|
Messiah was, |
|
They humbly laid at his feet, |
|
Their gifts of gold and incense sweet. |
