| Follow now, O shepherds, rise up from your sleeping
|
| Angels far from here a blessed watch are keeping
|
| Look up, look up, a star shines in the heavens
|
| Calling us to come, our holy King is given
|
| We must leave our flocks, the night is swiftly flying
|
| Trust a star to show us where the Child is lying
|
| Prepare a gift that we would place before Him
|
| We are humble shepherds, yet would we adore Him?
|
| Look up, look up, a star shines in the heavens
|
| Calling us to come, our holy King is given
|
| Can this be a King? |
| His room is but a manger
|
| Humbly born is He, yet safe from earthly danger
|
| He is the King, Almighty power possessing
|
| He is heaven’s gift, this is the Christmas blessing
|
| Look up, look up, a star shines in the heavens
|
| Calling us to come, our holy King is given |
