1 Praise to God and peace on earth! hear what heaven's angels say; fear shall die at glory's birth Jesus is alive today! 2 Shepherds have no time to lose, come to worship, go their way bursting with the latest news Jesus is alive today! 3 Mary wonders at her child, keeps in mind, as well she may promises in him fulfilled Jesus is alive today! 4 Angels' music, shepherds' word, we shall sing as well as they; Mary's Son is Christ the Lord Jesus is alive today!
