    1. Near Bethlehem did shepherds keep
               F        C        Gmi
       their flocks of lamb and feething sheep
            C4sus    C       Emi    C
       to whom God's angels did appear
              F        C      Ami   G    C
       which put the shepherds in great fear
                  Cmi7   Gmi     Cmi
       arise and go thou angels said
        Gmi Cmi          Gmi
       to  Bethlehem be not afraid
             C4sus       C         Emi   C
       for there you'll find this happy morn
           F       C  Ami     G     C
       a princely babe sweet Jesus born.

    2. There were three wise men from afar
       directed by our glorious star
       and on they wandered night and day
       until they came to where Jesus lay
       and when they came unto the stall
       where our beloved Messiah was
       they humbly laid at his feet
       their gifts of gold and incense sweet.
