While Shepherds Watched Cranbrook
Misc Traditional
While Shepherds Watched to the Hymn Tune Cranbrook (a.k.a. Ilkley Moor) 

While shepherds watched their flocks by night...
All seated on the ground,
The angel of the Lord came down,
The angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around.
And glory shone around.
And glory shone around.

Fear not," said he, for mighty dread...
Had seized their troubled minds;
Glad tidings of great joy I bring
Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind.
To you and all mankind.
To you and all mankind.

To you in David's town this day
Is born of David's line
 Saviour, who is Christ the Lord,
 Saviour, who is Christ the Lord,
And this shall be the sign
And this shall be the sign
And this shall be the sign

The heav'nly Babe you there shall find
To human view displayed,
All meanly wrapped in swathing bands,
All meanly wrapped in swathing bands,
And in a manger laid
And in a manger laid
And in a manger laid

Thus spake the Seraph; and forthwith
Appeared a shining throng
Of angels praising God, who thus
Of angels praising God, who thus
Addressed their joyful song
Addressed their joyful song
Addressed their joyful song

All glory be to God on high,
And to the Earth be peace;
Goodwill henceforth from Heav'n to men
Goodwill henceforth from Heav'n to men
Begin and never cease
Begin and never cease
Begin and never cease
