Lyrics
For the shepherds in the field it was just another night
They were watching their sheep underneath the moonlight
Everything changed right before their eyes
When the glory of the Lord filled the skies
I know they were scared and we can’t blame them
But there is just one thing I’m wonderin
Did the shepherds need shades in the middle of the night
To cover their eyes from a light so bright?
Did they turn their heads? Did they wanna run away?
You know I really wanna know did the shepherds need shades?
When they heard the angel’s words well they must have been confused
Saying don’t be afraid I’m bringing you some good news
Unto you is born on this very day
And you’ll find him in a bed that is filled with hay
And suddenly the sky was filled with shouts
But there is still one thing I wonder about
Did the shepherds need shades in the middle of the night
To cover their eyes from a light so bright?
Did they turn their heads? Did they wanna run away?
You know I really wanna know did the shepherds need shades?
