While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks by Night lyrics
by George Frideric Handel
While shepherds watched their flocks by night
All seated on the ground
The angel of the Lord came down
And glory shone around...
And glory shone around
"Fear not," said he, for mighty dread
Had seized their troubled mind
"Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind
To you and all mankind."
