Shepherds, rejoice!
Song
Shepherds, rejoice, ; Who watch over the flock. ; Let your throats sing, ; Let your trumpets sound. ; ; I in my dream at night, ; I heard the voice of an angel. ; I saw light, ; I immediately jumped to my feet. ; ; Above Bethlehem, ; Angels sing, ; They announce new, new news, ; They mean great joy. ; ; Come, my friend! ; Now the Messiah is born. ; About whom the scripture spoke, ; Many prophecies of old. ; ; But let us not go empty, ; Let us also bring a gift. ; Milk, butter, cheese, ; Or a condor lamb. ; ; Praise be to Jesus Christ!
