Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
While shepherds watched their flocks by night
All seated on the ground,
The angel of the Lord came down
And glory shone around.
CHORUS
Sweet chiming Christmas bells,
Sweet chiming Christmas bells,
They cheer us on our heav'nward way,
Sweet chiming Christmas bells.
La la la la la la la la la la la la.
VERSE 2
Fear not, said he, for mighty dread
Had seized their troubled mind.
Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind.
VERSE 3
To you in David's town this day
Is born of David's line,
A Saviour who is Christ the Lord,
And this shall be the sign.
