Angels Appear to the Shepherds The shepherds were the first to know About the holy sight. Their fields and flocks were all aglow From the angel’s glorious light. The angel brought good news for all Of peace on earth and joy The Savior of the world was born In a manger, a baby boy. Read this account for yourself in Luke 2:8-14 Of all the people God could have chosen to bless with the good news of the Savior’s birth, he chose the shepherds. And bless he did.
