Do YOU Hear What I Hear? (Poem)

Do YOU Hear What I Hear?

Said the night sky to the Wise men three, 

 Do you SEE what I see, 

Way up in the sky, Wise men three?

Do You see what I see, 

A Star, a Star, 

Shining in the night, 

Guiding thee to the Saviour and Light, 

to the place where Faith becomes Sight. (Matt. 2:1-12)

Said the Faithful shepherds to the shepherd fold,

Do you HEAR what I hear, 

Singing through the night, clear and bold,

Do you hear what I hear,

A multitude of the heavenly host, praising Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,

Peace on Earth, Goodwill from coast to coast. (Luke 2:13&14)

Sang the Angels' song to the shepherd men,

Do you KNOW what we know,

On this day, here in Bethlehem,

Do you know what we know,

A child is born, lying in a manger cold, 

Ye shall find Him wrapped in swaddling clothes, 

resting sweetly in peaceful repose. (Luke 2:8-12)

Said the Shepherds to the people known abroad,

LISTEN to what we say,

A Saviour's born, which IS Christ the LORD,

LISTEN to what we say,

We came with haste,  found Him where He lay,

Good tidings of great joy,  angels did say,

He will turn our darkness to day! (Luke 2:14-18)

He is truly GOODNESS AND LIGHT! (Luke 2:32) (M.H.)(FM)
