Awake, arise good Christians, Let nothing you dismay, Remember Christ our Saviour Was born upon this day! The self-same moon was shining, That now is in the sky, When a holy band of angels Came down from God on high! When a holy band of angels Came down from God on high. 2. Came down on clouds of glory, Arrayed in shining light, Unto the shepherd people Who watched their flocks by night. And through the midnight silence The heavenly host began: "Glory be to God on Highest; On earth, good will to man! Glory be to God the Highest; On earth, good will to man!" 3. Fear not, we bring good tidings, For, on this happy morn, The promised One, the Saviour, In Bethlehem is born!" Up rose the simple shepherds All with a joyful mind; "And let us go with speed," said they, "This holy child to find; And let us go with speed," said they, "This holy Child to find." 4. Not in a kingly palace The Son of God they found, But in a lowly manger Where oxen fed around. The glorious King of Heaven, The Lord of all the earth, In mercy condescended To be of humble birth. 5. Long looked the simple shepherds, With holy wonder stirred, Then praised God for all the things Which they had seen and heard. And homeward went rejoicing, Upon that Christmas morn, Declaring unto every one That Jesus Christ was born. Browse Carols: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
