While shepherds watch their flocks by night,


they see a bright new shining star.
They hear a choir sing a song,
the music seemed to come from afar.

Hark now! Hear the Angels sing, a King was born today,
and man will live forever more because of Christmas Day.

Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, came to Bethlehem that night.
They found no place to bear the child,
not a single room was in sight.

Hark now! Hear the Angels sing, a King was born today,
and man will live forever more because of Christmas Day.

And in a manger, cold and dark, Mary`s little boy was born.
