What a night of great excitement!
(Shepherds lead a quiet life.
Barring wolf or bear incursion,
they have little thrill or strife.)
Yet, upon the night I speak of,
angel voices they had heard
telling them in wondrous phrases
that a great thing had occurred.

They were told that, as they listened,
in the town of Bethlehem,
there was born the great Messiah.
And a sign was given them.
They would find him in a manger,
Lying wrapped in swathing bands.
He was sent to save his people
