[Verse] |
|
So here is the stable and there is the manger |
|
The new Saviour sleeps on His first earthly night |
|
The wise men brought riches but we brought a candle |
|
It's all that we have but it gives a good light |
|
We are the shepherds we walked cross the mountains |
|
We left our flocks when the new star appeared |
|
Oh, the beautiful singin' of heavenly choir |
|
We had to come see Him, we had to come here |
|
We beg You forgive us for such a small offering |
|
But our sheep are out there with wolves in the night |
|
We bring You this candle it's all we have with us |
|
But with it the new Saviour has His first light |
|
We are the shepherds |
|
We thank Thee kind Joseph for bidding us enter |
|
Please take our gift for the new babe to thine |
|
It's only one candle but it is our symbol |
|
Of how we believe that His great life will shine |
|
We are the shepherds |
