Luke 2:15-17 . . . . the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
[16] And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.
[17] And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
The shepherds met Jesus, were saved, and were changed forever.
They went back to their sheep, but as they went, they told everyone they met what they had heard and seen and what the Lord had done for them.
Jesus changes every life He saves, 2 Cor. 5:17. He gives us a new song, Psa. 40:1-3. He makes us witnesses of His saving grace, Acts 1:8.
Go Tell it on The Mountain
_______________________
CHORUS:
Go tell it on the mountain, — over the hills and everywhere; — go tell it on the mountain — that Jesus Christ is born!
While shepherds kept their watching — o’er silent flocks by night, — behold throughout the heavens — there shone a holy light.
The shepherds feared and trembled — when lo! above the earth — rang out the angel chorus — that hailed our Savior’s birth.
Down in a lowly manger — the humble Christ was born, —
and God sent us salvation — that blessed Christmas morn.
