- While by the sheep we watched at night,
Glad tidings brought an angel bright.- Refrain:
How great our joy! Great our joy!
Joy, joy, joy! Joy, joy, joy!
Praise we the Lord in heav’n on high!
Praise we the Lord in heav’n on high!
- Refrain:
- There shall be born, so He did say,
In Bethlehem a Child today. - There shall the Child lie in a stall,
This Child who shall redeem us all. - This gift of God we’ll cherish well,
That ever joy our hearts shall fill.
