[Verse 1]
Follow now, oh shepherds, rise up from your sleeping
Angels far from here a blessed watch are keeping
[Chorus]
Look up, look up, a star shines in the heavens
Calling us to come, our Holy King is given
[Verse 2]
We must leave our flocks, the night is swiftly flying
Trust a star to show us where the Child is lying
[Verse 3]
Prepare a gift that we would place before Him
We are humble shepherds, yet would we adore Him
[Chorus]
Look up, look up, a star shines in the heavens
Calling us to come, our Holy King is given
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
Can this be a King? His room is but a manger
Humbly born is He, yet safe from earthly danger
Follow now, oh shepherds, rise up from your sleeping
Angels far from here a blessed watch are keeping
[Chorus]
Look up, look up, a star shines in the heavens
Calling us to come, our Holy King is given
[Verse 2]
We must leave our flocks, the night is swiftly flying
Trust a star to show us where the Child is lying
[Verse 3]
Prepare a gift that we would place before Him
We are humble shepherds, yet would we adore Him
[Chorus]
Look up, look up, a star shines in the heavens
Calling us to come, our Holy King is given
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
Can this be a King? His room is but a manger
Humbly born is He, yet safe from earthly danger
