Here's a little poem I wrote...
V1
Bethlehem, judea, on a hillside long ago,
The least regarded men about the town,
Were looking after flocks of sheep – they ever did it so.
Then suddenly, an angel’s coming down.
Pre-Chorus 1
The night lit up, the men did shake
The angel said ‘Don’t fear!
I bring you news, to quell your blues,
For everyone to hear.’
In David’s town, this very day,
There’s born a baby boy,
And you will see, that he will be,
To everyone a joy.
Chorus
The shepherds on the hill came down to see,
The shepherd of the hill of calvary.
Right now he’s just a baby in a stall,
One day he’ll surely die to save us all.
His love for us will never stop or sleep,
He’s come to lay his life down for his sheep.
He’s the shepherd of the hill of calvary.
V2:
The sky was filled with angels and they sang out loud and clear,
‘All Glory to our God. Let’s sing his praise.
On earth to those who please God - be at peace for He is here.
Let’s worship him for all our endless days.’
Pre-Chorus 2
The angels went, the shepherds soon,
ran off to find the truth,
And just the same, this Christ, by name,
Was there, as living proof.
They met the child and praised the Lord,
Then told all that they saw.
This Saviour King, had come to bring.
a peace, forevermore.
Chorus
The shepherds on the hill came down to see,
The shepherd of the hill of calvary.
Right now he’s just a baby in a stall,
One day he’ll surely die to save us all.
His love for us will never stop or sleep,
He’s come to lay his life down for his sheep.
He’s the shepherd of the hill of calvary.
