Verse 1:
 
        D                         A 
While shepherds watched their flocks by night

All seated on the ground 
       D          A 
The angel of the Lord came down 
      D            G 
And glory shone around 
       D                    A 
'Fear not!' said he; for mighty dread

Had seized their troubled minds 
         D              A 
'Glad tidings of great joy I bring

To you and all mankind
