1 Shepherds, rejoice! lift up your eyes,
And drive your fears away.
And drive your fears away;
News, from the regions of the skies,
News, from the regions of the skies,
News, from the regions of the skies,
A Saviour born today.
2 Jesus, the God whom angels fear,
Comes down to dwell with you;
Today He makes His entrance here,
But not as monarchs do.
3 Go, shepherds, where the Infant lies,
And see His humble throne;ؘ–
With tears of joy in all your eyes,
Go, shepherds, “Kiss the Son.”
4 Glory to God that reigns above,
Let peace surround the earth.
Mortals shall know their Maker’s love,
At their Redeemer’s birth.
