While

watched
their

by
night
Alors
que
les
bergers
gardaient
leurs

la
nuit
All
seated
on
the

Tous
assis
sur

of
the
Lord
came
down
L'ange
du
Seigneur
est
descendu
And
glory
shone
around
Et
la
gloire
a
brillé
autour
"Fear
not"
said
he,
for
mighty
dread
"Ne
crains
pas",
dit-il,
car
une
grande
peur
Had
seized
their
troubled
mind
S'était
emparée
de
leur
esprit
troublé
Glad
tidings
of
great
joy
I
bring
Je
vous
apporte
de
bonnes
nouvelles
de
grande
joie
To
you
and
all
mankind
Pour
vous
et
pour
toute

né

lignée
de
David
A
Saviour,
who
is
Christ
the
Lord
Un
Sauveur,
qui
est
le
Christ
le
Seigneur
And
this
shall
be
his
sign
Et
ceci
sera
son
signe
The
heavenly
babe
you
there
shall
find
Tu
trouveras
le
bébé
céleste
là-bas
To
human
view
displayed
À
la
vue
humaine
All
meanly
wrapped
in
swaddling
bands
Tout
enveloppé
dans
des
langes
And
in
a
manger
laid
Et
couché
dans
une
crèche
Thus
spake
the
seraph
and
forthwith
Ainsi
parla
le
séraphin
et
aussitôt
Appeared
a
shining
throng
Apparut
une
foule
brillante
Of
angels
praising
God,
who
thus
D'anges
louant
Dieu,
qui
ainsi
Addressed
their
joyful
song
Adressèrent
leur
chant
joyeux
All
glory
be
to
God
on
high
Toute
gloire
soit
à
Dieu
au
plus
haut
And
to
the
earth
be
peace
Et
paix
sur
terre

volonté
désormais
du
ciel
aux
