Come, shepherds, come! shake off your sleep,
And ope your weary eyes;
Tis time to leave your folded sheep,
Come, shepherds, come, arise!
Hark! angels clad in bright array,
Burst forth in heavnly song;
See! night grows brighter than the day,
Lit by their glistening throng.

As saints of old their firstfruits brought
of orchard, flock, and field
to God, the giver of all good,
the source of bounteous yield;
so we today firstfruits would bring:
the wealth of this good land,
of farm and market, shop and home,
of mind and heart and hand.
