“Then the Shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God….” (Luke 2:20)
Tune: God moves in a mysterious way…
The shepherd men returned to what? To angels´ song of praise? Oh no, the fields were still their lot With rough and moody days!
And yet their days were not the same, Their hearts were filled with joy, Their voices praised the Savior´s name Born as a baby boy!
The light of glory they had seen Did not appear again, This lack of thrill, though, did not mean Their Christmas was in vain!
And now their fields seemed still more green, Nay, beautiful and clean, On Heaven´s presence they would lean In every day´s routine!
When with the shepherds our day Shows forth a smiling face, Our private fields do not grow grey, For cheerful is God´s grace!
