English text
As shepherds watched their fleecy care,
An heav'nly angel did appear:
'Shepherds, attend; to you I bring
Glad tidings of a new-born king.'
Loud hosannas send on high,
Raise your voices to the sky:
Hymns of praises ever sing,
To this new-born heav'nly King.
In Bethle'm town this blessed morn,
The Saviour of mankind is born;
Born of a spotless virgin pure,
Free from all sin, from guilt secure.
Loud hosannas send on high,
Raise your voices to the sky:
Hymns of praises ever sing,
To this new-born heav'nly King.
Arise, your tender care forsake,
With hasty steps your journey take,
To David's city; there you'll find
The great redeemer of mankind.
Loud hosannas send on high,
Raise your voices to the sky:
Hymns of praises ever sing,
To this new-born heav'nly King.
In swaddling clothes the babe behold,
No costly garb his limbs unfold,
Laid in a manger there you'll see
The pattern of humility.
Loud hosannas send on high,
Raise your voices to the sky:
Hymns of praises ever sing,
To this new-born heav'nly King.
To save us from eternal death,
The great Messiah came on earth;
Then let us with united voice
In hallelujahs all rejoice.
Loud hosannas send on high,
Raise your voices to the sky:
Hymns of praises ever sing,
To this new-born heav'nly King.
