The night in solemn stillness hung O'er pastures fair and green, When from above the angels' song Fell thro' the still serene; It came to those whose watchful care Kept their flocks in safety there. [Refrain:] Rejoice, Rejoice For unto you is peace restored Today is born a Saviour, Who is Christ the Lord. 2. Great dread and wonder at the sound Then filled each heaving breast, And prone they lay upon the ground By trembling fears possessed; While louder still the anthem rung By angel's myriad voices sung. [Refrain] 3. But lo! of joy and peace on earth The angel voices spoke; And of the Saviour's infant birth The gladsome tidings broke; And bade the shepherds bend their way, To where the cradled infant lay. [Refrain] 4. And still the accents sweet and fair Came through the starry night, Then died away upon the air With sounds of rich delight; And lo! a star serenely shone To guide their wandering footsteps on.
