Who Was There

Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Meter: 9.7.9.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Christmas Shepherds First Line: Who was there to hear good news proclaimed Lyrics: 1 Who was there to hear good news proclaimed by an angel from on high? Who was there to hear the glorias that rang throughout the sky? Only shepherds on a barren hill, caring for their flocks that night; only shepherds lifting up their eyes to see the wondrous sight. 2 Who knelt there beside the manger bed of the new-born holy child? Who stood round to sing the angels’ song to Mary, mother mild? Only shepherds bravely greeting him who would rule their hearts one day; only shepherds trusting peace would come to those who walk his way. 3 Who amazed their friends with stories of angel songs, incarnate Word? Who gave thanks and praised God joyfully for wonders seen and heard? Only shepherds, simple folk and poor, on a hill near Bethlehem; only shepherds wise enough to see that Christ had come for them.

There's a voice in the wilderness crying

Author: James Lewis Milligan, 1876-1961 Meter: Irregular Appears in 24 hymnals Topics: God Images (Shepherd) Lyrics: 1 There’s a voice in the wilderness crying, a call from the ways untrod: prepare in the desert a highway, a highway for our God! The valleys shall be exalted, the lofty hills brought low; make straight all the crooked places where the Lord our God may go! 2 O Zion, that bringest good tidings, go up to the heights and sing! Proclaim to a desolate people the coming of their King. Like the flowers of the field they perish, like grass our works decay, the power and pomp of nations shall pass like a dream away, 3 but the Word of our God is steadfast; the arm of our God is strong; God stands in the midst of the nations, and soon will right the wrong. God shall feed his flock like a shepherd, the lambs will gently hold, to pastures of peace shall lead them, and bring them safe to his fold. Scripture: Isaiah 40:1-11 Used With Tune: ASCENSION
