Herdsmen
Song
1. Shepherds, ; When they went to Bethlehem, ; They were keeping their flock ; In the field at night. ; ; 2. The angel of God ; Came to him. ; With great fear ; His heart was filled with joy. ; ; 3. I tell you joy, ; Great joy, ; For now is born ; Your salvation. ; ; 4. Go then ; Quickly into the city! ; There you will find ; Jesus in the manger. ; ; 5. And they went, ; And they came ; To the holy dwelling ; Of the Lord of heaven and earth. ; ; 6. They did not find him ; In a bright palace ; But a stable ; In a poor manger. ; ; 7. Who is heaven and earth ; He lifts up his heels ; He finds no other place ; Where does he lay his head?
