EN 3630 To Weary Shepherds Sleeping

Luke.2.9

Versi Version 1

1

To weary shepherds sleeping,

A blinding light appeared;

And from their couches sleeping,

They scattered, all afeared;

But Gabriel spake to calm them

From all that did alarm them.

2

With silver wings and golden

A mighty host they saw;

Ne’er had their eyes beholden

Such majesty before.

Said Gabriel that even,

“I come from God in Heaven.”

3

And while his words they ponder

The angel host around

Cried: “In a manger yonder

The King of kings is found!

Go shepherds, do not tarry;

Your loving homage carry.”

4

In joy they turned their faces

To where they heard He lay,

And merry were their paces

And songs upon the way.

And when the dawn was creeping

They found Him sweetly sleeping.

5

Their gifts they laid around Him

With shy and humble word,

And—happy to have found Him—

They lingered and adored.

While Gabriel—upward winging—

“Now peace on earth!” was singing.
