God Came to Shepherds

God came to shepherds 

To nobodies in a field

Angelic visitation

His glory was revealed 

God came to shepherds

In their own secluded walk 

In darkness they were awake

At night they were keeping watch 

God came to shepherds 

To the humble and unknown

The Lord saw them keeping watch

When they thought they were alone

God came to shepherds 

He had not forgotten them

They sought after His presence

And found Him in Bethlehem 

God came to shepherds 

They saw Him in a manger

And when we seek after Him 

He will not be a stranger 

God came to shepherds 

In His mercy we can trust 

He will reveal Himself 

To the hungry and to us
