On a frozen hillside outside of Bethlehem Shepherds watch their sheep beneath the sky Sitting by the fireside, all rough and ready men That's how they earn their keep, as all of Bethl'hem sleeps nearby Oo As the world just slips on by Shepherds by the fire, they live from day to day Working nights to earn their daily bread They long for their Messiah, just like the Scriptures say They watch the fire burn and in their hearts they yearn For a day when people say, God is with us For a night of hope and light on Earth For a change some news so strange and wonderful How they pray to see the Saviour's birth Then the stars are falling, falling from the sky And the hill shines bright as any day The shepherds, blindly crawling, and trembling as they cry Then from the dazzling light a voice calls in the night and says Oo, there's no need to be afraid Everything is changing, I bring you good news Christ the Lord is born in Bethlehem The Earth is rearranging, and God is breaking through A bright and joyful dawn, the night at last has gone Now's the day when people say, God is with us Here's the night of hope and light on Earth Here's the change the news so strange and wonderful Now's the day you see the Saviour's birth Then there comes a roaring, the curtain draws aside All of Heaven's glory blazes through Heaven's angels pouring - a great and shining tide A multitude and more, all praising God in glory Glory to God on high! Glory to God on high Glory be to God, be to God on high Glory to God on high Glory to God in the Highest Heaven Let there be peace on Earth Glory to God in the Highest Heaven Let there be peace on Earth Peace once more descending upon the hillside here The glory fades and rises in the sky The angels' song is ending, it's echoes disappear The shepherds rub their eyes, and gaze into the skies and cry Oo tears in their eyes, now the men arise, they cry for joy for Christ is born They cry for joy for Christ is born
