While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks

While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks - The Louvin Brothers

Written by：Traditional

While shepherds watched their flocks by night

All seated on the ground

The angel of the lord came down

And glory shone around

And glory shone around

Fear not said he for mighty dread

Had seized their troubled minds

Glad tidings of great joy I bring

To you and all mankind

To you and all mankind

To you in David's town this day

Is born of David's line

A 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 swaddling ben

And in a manger laid

And in a manger laid
