The Shepherds
On this night there were shepherds watching their sheep in the fields near Bethlehem. An angel came down to them from the Lord. The brightness of the Lord’s glory shined around them. The shepherds fell to their knees and put their Hands over their eyes. They were very frightened. But the angel said, Don’t afraid I have good news for you which will make everyone happy. This very day in the city of David a Savior was born for you. He is Christ the Lord. You will know who he is because you will find him lying on a bed of hay. Suddenly many other angels came down from Heaven. They said, Praise God in Heaven Peace on earth to everyone who pleases God. The shepherds went to Bethlehem. They found Jesus lying on a bed of hay in a manger. They told Mary and Joseph what the angels had said about their son. Mary thought about this. She wondered what it meant. As the shepherds went back to their sheep they could not stop talking about the baby and praising God.
