I love TobyMac’s version because of his added repetition of the line “O come let us adore Him”.
When the angels had returned to heaven, the shepherds said to each other, “Let’s go to Bethlehem! Let’s see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” They hurried to the village and found Mary and Joseph. And there was the baby, lying in the manger. After seeing him, the shepherds told everyone what had happened and what the angel had said to them about this child. All who heard the shepherds’ story were astonished, but Mary kept all these things in her heart and thought about them often. The shepherds went back to their flocks, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen. It was just as the angel had told them.
~Luke 2:15-20 (NLT)
On the first Christmas, the shepherds were eager to see baby Jesus. Can you imagine what it’d be like having the opportunity to see the King of the world on the night He was born?!
And the shepherds not only visited Jesus, but they also told everyone they met the good news.
Although we can’t visit Jesus in the manger today, we can still fully adore Him.
Jesus is risen. He is our King and Savior. He deserves the highest praise.
Christmas is a great time to remember the praise Jesus is due.
O come let us adore Him!
