Peace, and give ear! New light shines in my mind.
Gabriel.
And as a shepherd he shall feed
His flocks, and in his arms shall bear
The lambs, and like a father fair
The ewes with young shall lead.
Enter Angels.
Angels.
| Semi-Chorus. | Semi-Chorus. |
| Glory to God | In the Highest! |
| Who unto man | Now comes nighest. |
| Peace be to earth! | Goodwill to all! |
| Christ the new Birth | Redeems man’s fall. |
