英文乡村歌曲：Kate Rusby - Hail Chime On

While shepherds watched,
Their flocks by night,
All seated on, all on the ground,
The angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around.

[Chorus:]
Hail, chime on, chime on,
Merry, merry Christmas bells chime on.
Hail, chime on, chime on,
Merry, merry Christmas bells chime on.

"Fear not," said he,
For mighty¹ dread²,
Had seized their troubled, troubled minds,
"Glad tidings of great joy I bring,
To you and all mankind".

[Chorus]

"To you in David's,
Town this day,
Is born of David's, David's line.
The Savior who is Christ the Lord,
And this shall be the sign."

[Chorus]

"All glory be to,
God on high,
And to the earth, the earth be peace,
Goodwill³ henceforth,
From heaven to men,
Begin and never cease",

[Chorus]
