There's a star in the East on Christmas morn / Rise up, shepherd, and follow / It will lead to
the place where the Christ was born / Rise up, shepherd, and follow

Follow, follow, rise up shepherd, and follow / Follow the star of Bethlehem / Rise up,
shepherd, and follow

If you take good heed to the angels' words / Rise up, shepherd, and follow / You'll forget
your flocks, you'll forget your herds / Rise up, shepherd, and follow
