In the expectation of Messiah

And peace on Earth!

Simple minded they are
Pure in heart they are
Simple routine they have
Hard working people they are
Tending and gaurding the herds

Expecting the arrival of Heavenly King singing:

To keep away the animals
Far from the herd
Angels join in singing songs
In announcing the birth of Heavenly child singing:
Glory to God in the Highest
And peace on Earth!

Shepherds in their songs
Sing about the messiah
Expected for all ages
In gaurding the herd
Angels join in singing
Announcing the birth of savor the Messiah
To be born in Bethlehem singing:
Glory to God in the Highest
And peace on Earth!

Shepherds in their songs
Singing about the savor to be born
The expectant song of their ancestors
In the watchful night on their work
Angels join in their song
Announcing the birth of savior
The good news of Israel
To be born in Bethlehem - singing:
Glory to God in the Highest
And peace on Earth!
