Shepherds in the Field Waiting Lyrics

Tell us, when the seraph bright
Greeted you with wondrous tiding
What you saw and heard that night.
Gloria in excelsis Deo.

God incarnate, King of bliss,
Swathed and cradled in a stable,
And the angel strain was this:
Gloria in excelsis Deo.

Jesus and his Virgin birth
Heavenly bells the while a-ring,
"Peace, good will to men on earth."
Gloria in excelsis Deo.

Have with you to Bethlehem;
Angels hymn the King of glory,
Carol we with you and them.
Gloria in excelsis Deo.
