  And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying: "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will to man." —St. Luke. The shepherds were watching their flocks On a beautiful starlit night, When the sky was suddenly filled With a band of angels bright. Oh! shepherds fear not but rejoice, For we bring good news, they sing; In Bethlehem is born this day, A saviour who is Christ your King! A glad and wonderful song Rang through the heavens then; It was "Glory to God on high, Peace on earth, good will toward men." THE CHRISTMAS SONG. |
