The Christmas - time to stop

Come, ye shepherds

Schöner Schnee herrlicher Ausblick

Beautiful snow magnificent view

Come, ye shepherds, ye men and Fraunhofer,

cometh to behold the lovely little child,
Christ the Lord is born today
God the Savior, you have chosen.
Do not be afraid.

Let us look at the stable of Bethlehem,
what we promised the heavenly sound;

what we find there, let us proclaim,
Let us praise in pious ways.
Hallelujah!

Verily, the angels proclaim today 'Bethlehem's pastoral people do great joy:
Now there will be peace on earth,
the good will to all people.
Glory to God!
