On Judah's plains as shepherds sat

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 26 hymnals Topics: Christ Incarnation Lyrics: 1 On Judah’s plains as shepherds sat, Watching their flocks by night, The angel of the Lord appear'd, Clad in celestial light. 2 Awe-struck the vision they regard, Appall'd with trembling fear; When thus a cherub-voice divine Breath'd sweetly on their ear. 3 “Shepherds of Judah! cease your fears, And calm your troubled mind; Glad tidings of great joy I bring To you and all mankind. 4 This day almighty love fulfils Its great eternal word; This day is born in Bethlehem A Saviour, Christ the Lord. 5 There shall you find the heav'nly babe In humblest weeds array'd; All meanly wrapp'd in swaddling clothes, And in a manger laid." 6 He ceas'd, and sudden all around Appear'd a radiant throng Of angels, praising God, and thus Warbling their choral song: 7 "Glory to God, from whom on high All-gracious mercies flow! Who sends his heav’n-descended peace To dwell with man below."
