WHILE SHEPHERDS WATCHED THEIR FLOCKS
Trad. Christmas carol
Key: D

-2* 3  -3   -5      5*    
While shep-herds watched 
 -4     -3   -1 2 -2*
their flocks by night,
-2*3 -3  -3 -3 3-2* -2* 2
All seat-ed on the ground,
4*-5 6 -3  3   3   3   -2*2  -2*
The an-gel of the Lord came down,
-55* -4 -3   3  -2* -4-3
And glo-ry shone a-round.
 6  -3  -5  -2*  2  -1
And glo-ry shone a-round.

 -2*3 -3     -5  5*  -4   -3  -1 2 -2*
"Fear not!" said he; for might-y dread
-2*3  -3    -3    -3  3-2* -2*2
Had seized their trou-bled mind,
 4*-5  6   -3  3    3    3 -2*2 -2* 
"Glad tid-ings of great joy I bring,
-55* -4  -3   3 -2* -4-3
To  you and all man-kind.
6  -3  -5  -2*  2   -1
To you and all man-kind.

"To you, in David's town, this day
Is born of David's line,
The Savior, who is Christ the Lord;
And this shall be the sign:
And this shall be the sign:

"The heavenly babe you there shall find
To human view displayed,
All meanly wrapped in swathing bands,
And in a manger laid."
And in a manger laid."

Thus spake the seraph; and forthwith
Appeared a shining throng
Of angels, praising God, who thus
Addresses their joyful song:
Addresses their joyful song:

"All glory be to God on high,
And on the earth be peace:
Good will henceforth from heaven to man,
Begin and never cease!"
Begin and never cease!"
