While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks by Night

Author: Nahum Tate Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,108 hymnals Lyrics: 1 While shepherds watched their flocks by night, All seated on the ground, The angel of the Lord came down, And glory shone around. 2 "Fear not," said he--for mighty dread Had seized their troubled mind-- "Glad tidings of great joy I bring To you and all mankind. 3 "To you in David's town this day, Is born of David's line A Saviour, who is Christ the Lord; And this shall be the sign: 4 "The heavenly Babe you there shall find To human view displayed, All meanly wrapped in swathing bands, And in a manger laid." 5 Thus spake the Seraph; and forthwith Appeared a shining throng Of angels praising God, who thus Addressed their joyful song: 6 "All glory be to God on high, And on the earth be peace; Good will henceforth from heaven to men Begin and never cease!" Amen. Topics: Church Year Christmas; Christmas Day Used With Tune: SPOHR

When downward to the darksome tomb

Author: Ray Palmer Appears in 44 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When downward to the darksome tomb I thoughtful turn my eyes, Frail nature trembles at the gloom, And anxious fears arise. 2 Why shrinks my soul? In death's embrace Once Jesus captive slept; And angels, hovering o'er the place, His lowly pillow kept. 3 Thus shall they guard my sleeping dust, And as the Saviour rose, The grave again shall yield her trust, And end my deep repose. 4 My Lord, before to glory gone, Shall bid me come away, And calm and bright shall break the dawn Of heaven's eternal day. 5 Then let my faith each fear dispel, And gild with light the grave; To him my loftiest praises swell, Who died from death to save.
