104. How Great Our Joy

1 While by the sheep we watched at night,
lo, there appeared an angel bright'

Refrain:
How great our joy! Great our joy!
Joy, joy, joy! Joy, joy, joy!
Praise we the Lord in heav'n on high!
Praise we the Lord in heav'n on high!

2 There shall be born, so he did say,
In Bethlehem a Child today. [Refrain]

3 There shall the Child lie in a stall,
This Child who shall redeem us all. [Refrain]

4 This gift of God we'll cherish well,
That ever joy our hearts shall fill. [Refrain]
