w: In_ the coun- try nigh to Beth- le hem On_ a star- ry night of old, There were_ in the fields a- bid ing Shep- herds with their flocks in fold. Round the flocks the faith- ful_ shep- herds Keep their watch from eve till_ morn, Lest their_ sheep, so weak and help- less, Should by e- vil beasts be torn.
