Songtext von Follow Now, O Shepherds

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 pow'r 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.
