about

Trad/Arr. Kate Rusby
This carol is from Dorset and made popular by The Copper Family

lyrics

Shepherds arise be not afraid
With hasty steps prepare
To David's city sin on Earth
With our blessed Infant there
With our blessed Infant there
With our blessed Infant there

Chorus:
Sing, sing, all Earth
Sing, sing, all Earth eternal
Praises sing to our Redeemer
To our Redeemer
And our heavenly King.

Laid in a manger viewed a child
Humility Divine
Sweet innocence and meek and mild
Grace in his features shine
Grace in his features shine
Grace in his features shine

Chorus

For us the Saviour came on Earth
For us his life he gave
To save us from eternal death
And to raise us from the grave
To raise us from the grave
To raise us from the grave
