follow now
o shepherds
rise up from your sleeping
angels far from here a blessed watch are keeping
look up
look up
a star shines in the heavens
calling us to come
our holy king is given
we must leave our flocks
the night is swiftly flying
trust a star to show us where the child is lying
prepare a gift that we would place before him
we are humble shepherds
yet would we adore him?
look up
look up
a star shines in the heavens
calling us to come
our holy king is given
can this be a king? his room is but a manger
humbly born is he
yet safe from earthly danger
he is the king
almighty power possessing
he is heaven's gift
this is the christmas blessing
look up
look up
a star shines in the heavens
calling us to come
our holy king is given
