Who Kept The Sheep Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The shepherds afar left their flocks by night
Followed the new star by its heavenly light
Did the lambs fear the wolves
Did they lay down and sleep

[Chorus]
Who kept the sheep
Who kept the sheep

[Verse 2]
Did robbers not steal or did they fear the light
That the shepherds had followed night after night
Did they not stray
Did little lambs weep

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Under the new star, the new Saviour lay in his dim manger
He lay on the hay
The shepherds that came had a vigil to keep
But who kept the sheep

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Who kept the sheep
