Hark, Shepherd Swains Lyrics by George Jeffreys

0

Hark, shepherd swains, awake
Give ear and banish fear;
Behold, good news I bring to you
Whence shall accrue great joy of heart
To all that dwell in Israel
To you in Bethlem there is born today
A saviour, Christ the Lord, whom heavens obey
To try the truth: haste on, and ye the babe shall see;
Sweet babe, fair spark of heavenly light
So poorly dight, in clothing mean
Most like a wretch lodged in a cratch
But now, in honour of this mean-born king
Hark how my fellow soldiers sweetly sing:
"All glory be to God above
Whose gracious love this princе of peace hath sent
Whosе birth brings peace on earth;
In whom by faith may all mankind God's favour find
Now, then, both heaven and earth keep holy day
And jointly sing we all Alleluia"
