As the lowly shepherds
lay keeping their sheep.
An Angel of the Lord appeared,
Come worship the Savior
a babe in peaceful sleep.
Why the shepherds first?
Why not someone of more authority?
Christ alone came for all mankind
Not one has greater priority.
Who better to be the first to arrive?
After all, Christ is the Lamb of God.
Who better to kneel at His side,
but those who believed ,
though to others it may have seemed odd.
For in the Kingdom of Heaven,
the last shall be first and first shall be last
Lord make me as a lowly shepherd
help me to put You first,
and my selfish ways last.
