Angels From the Realms of Glory


 * And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks by night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be fore all the people. Today in the town of David a saviour has been born to you. He is Christ, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger." Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favour rests." When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about."  (Luke 2:8-15)

Lyrics
Angels from the realms of glory

Wing your flight over all the earth

Ye who sang creation's story

Now proclaim Messiah's birth

Come and worship, come and worship

Worship Christ the newborn king

Shepherds in the field abiding

Watching over your flocks by night

God with man is now residing

Yonder shines the infant light

Come and worship, come and worship

Worship Christ the newborn king

Sages, leave your contemplation

Brighter visions beam afar

Seek the great desire of nations

We have seen his natal star

Come and worship, come and worship

Worship Christ the newborn king
