Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Luke 2:13-16 First Line: May you hear the angels sings Lyrics: 1 May you hear the angels singing
once again this holy night,
May you hurry with the shepherds
to behold the wondrous sight
of the Christ who lies, a baby,
in a manger filled with straw.
May you kneel down with the shepherds,
know their wonder and their awe.
2 May you go and tell your neighbors
that the Promised One has come
for the poor, the sick, and homeless,
for the stranger, everyone!
As you celebrate together
this amazing gift of grace,
may you follow Christ’s example
and the way of love embrace.
