D                           A

It was just another quiet night

we were simply just watching our sheep.

There was nothing unusual in sight.

My brother might have been half asleep

Suddenly, we felt a strange wind

And there, before us, stood an angel

is born a savior. You will find Him

wrapped in swaddling clothes

lying in a manger, in a lowly manger.

A                          D

Oh, how His humility shows!

VERSE 2:

Suddenly, there was with the angel

a multitude of Heavenly Hosts

praising God. Grace, their song did foretell.

We rushed to the town of Bethlehem

searching for the One God did send.

We surely had to find Him.

So let us glorify His name.

You knew me way before You formed me

Lately, it seems

I no longer feel the beams

Em7       G

into these temptations.

Em7                     G
