Story behind the song
Written for Christmas at Gram's, an Advent Story. A song for Joram the Shepherd when angels announce the birth of the Messiah.
Lyrics
Verse 1:
On a dark, lonely hillside,
neath a cold starry sky
A small band of shepherds
kept watch in the night
And their white wooly charges
were safe in their care
As their soft, bleating cries
Cut the frost-laden air.
Verse 2:
One by one, the cold shepherds
Drifted off into sleep
Until only one shepherd watched over the sheep
When suddenly light filled the sky everywhere
And a tune made in heaven
Filled the frost-laden air.
Chorus:
Praise the Lord! For His mercy endures evermore!
Praise the Lord all you people, from every shore!
And Glory to God in the Highest
And on Earth, there is Peace and Goodwill to all men evermore!
Verse 3:
Then an angel appeared, and said, Dont be afraid!
For I bring you good news for all of mankind!
There is born down in Bethlehem a Savior and Lord
Wrapped in rags, in a manger, in the frost-laden air!
Verse 4:
And then, suddenly millions of angels were singing!
And the song made in heaven from hilltops came ringing!
A message of love, and a message of care
And a message of Peace split the frost-laden air!
Chorus:
Verse 5:
When the angels were gone, then the shepherds came running!
Let us see this great sight that the Lord has made known!
And they told everyone of the baby they found
And the song they had heard in the frost-laden air.
Chorus:
