Shepherds Left Their Flocks A-straying

Author: Imogen Holst Hymnal: Hymns for Youth #67 (1966) Meter: 8.8.8.7 First Line: Shepherds left their flocks astraying Lyrics: 1. Shepherds left their flocks astraying, God's command with joy obeying, When they heard the angel saying: "Christ is born in Bethlehem." 2. Wise men came from far and saw Him, Knelt in homage to adore Him; Precious gifts they laid before Him: Gold and frankincense and myrrh. 3. Let us now in every nation Sing His praise with exultation. All the world shall find salvation In the birth of Mary's son. Languages: English Tune Title: QUEM PASTORES
