upon a hill in bethlehem glory!
Select language to translate this lyric
Upon a hill in Bethlehem
The shepherds watched their sheep
And then an angel of the Lord
Did rouse them from their sleep
CHORUS:
(women) Glory! our God is highest
(men) Glory! our God is great!
The sheep went leaping, our savior is sleeping
and all will have peace tonight
âFear not, you hear the words of men
Brought down from heaven above
This very day a Savior born
Is Christ the Lord of love.â
âHow do you speak in shepherd tongue?ââ¨
The men now gave reply
âHow do you sing our folksy songâ¨
and brighten up our sky?â
For this good news weâll leave our flock
And venture from the hills
âO Glory, Glory to our God
Let heaven and earth be filled!â
