While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks
Author: Nahum Tate Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #236 (1989) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: While shepherds watched their flocks by night Lyrics: 1. 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.
2. "Fear not!" said he, for mighty dread
had seized their troubled mind.
"Glad tidings of great joy I bring
to all of humankind,
to all of humankind.
3. "To you, in David's town, this day
is born of David's line
a Savior, who is Christ the Lord,
and this shall be the sign,
and this shall be the sign:
4. "The heavenly babe you there shall find
to human view displayed,
all meanly wrapped in swathing bands,
and in a manger laid,
and in a manger laid."
5. Thus spake the seraph and forthwith
appeared a shining throng
of angels praising God on high,
who thus addressed their song,
who thus addressed their song:
6. "All glory be to God on high,
and to the earth be peace;
good will henceforth from heaven to earth
begin and never cease,
begin and never cease!"

Praise ye the Lord, ye Christians!
Author: Nicolaus Herman; Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #31b (1908) Lyrics: 1 Praise ye the Lord, ye Christians! Yea,
Praise the Eternal One,
Who opens heaven to us this day,
And gives us His own Son.
2 He comes from His loved Father's side,
Becomes an infant small,
And lies with scarce a want supplied
Weak in an humble stall.
3 His power divine aside is laid,
No crown adorns His brow;
The mighty God who all things made
Comes as a servant now.
4 He nestles at His mothers' breast,
Her precious nursling boy,
Whom saints and angels call the Blest,
And who is all their joy.
5 He is the Root of David's line,
King David's Lord and Son,
Through whom and by whose grace divine
The kingdom must be won.
6 A wonderful exchange He makes,
He puts on flesh and blood,
Then gives us back in what He takes,
His Godhead as our good.
7 He serves, that I a lord may be,
And gives His life for mine;
How could His love do more for me?
O mystery divine!
8 To-day He opens us the door
Of blissful Paradise,
The cherub threatens there no more;
Then let His praises rise! Topics: The Church Year Christmas Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTMAS
Praise ye the Lord, ye Christians!
