When The Shepherds Saw The Light

When the shepherds saw the light
Round the angels winging down,
Did they know that hope
would rise
From the manger and the Crown?

For the Holy Child was born!
Strike the drum and sound
the horn!
Sing and dance for joy,
Ev'ry girl and boy,
For the King came to bring you
His endless glory
Story after story!

When the wisemen saw the rays
From the star a-streaming down,
Did they know that peace
would rise
From the manger and the Crown?

For the Holy Child was born!
Strike the drum and sound
the horn!
Sing and dance for joy,
Ev'ry girl and boy,
For the King came to bring you
His endless glory
Story after story!

When the oxen saw the glow
From the Child extending round,
Did they know goodwill would rise
From the manger and the Crown?

For the Holy Child was born!
Strike the drum and sound
the horn!
Sing and dance for joy,
Ev'ry girl and boy,
For the King came to bring you
His endless glory
Story after story!

Sing and dance for joy,
Ev'ry girl and boy,
For the King came to bring you
His endless glory
Story after story!
Sing, sing,
For Christ the King!
