Luke
2: 8-14
And
there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their
flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the
Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them,
“Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the
people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the
Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in
cloths and lying in a manger.”
Suddenly
a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and
saying,
“Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his
favor rests.”
I
can’t imagine how it felt
To
watch the sky burn bright
With
angels praising God on High,
Awash
in Holy Light!
To
see such things with my own eyes
Would
fill me with deep fear,
Until
I heard the words they spoke…
The
birth of one so dear.
They
lay with flocks of sheep that night,
But
woke to Heaven’s joy!
The
world would never be the same,
Thanks
to that Baby Boy!
