Let's go, Let's go, Shepherds' Song
I've always thought that the moments between the angels leaving the shepherds, and the shepherds' arrival in Bethlehem, must have been full of excitement and awe. What had they just seen and heard?!! What was awaiting them in Bethlehem??!! What kind of difference would this make, not just to them but to everyone?!?!
That's where this song comes from - that sense of excitement and amazement.

Lyrics
(Chorus)
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go
Down to the town,
there's someone to be found.
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go
Search for the boy, who will bring us all joy!
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go
We're the shepherds,
and here's our plan
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go
Find Baby Jesus in Bethlehem!
1. We sat in the fields with our flocks that night,
The angel came, it was such a fright!
"Don't be afraid" he said
"Good News! - it's joy for all of you!"
2. "This day in David's Town you'll see
The Saviour who will set you free."
"And here's the sign," the Angel said
"A manger for his bed..."
3. We were amazed but then we saw
The sky was filled with thousands more
All angels praising God - it's true!
There's one thing left to do...!
