O Come All Ye Faithful John Francis Wade’s Cantus Diversi, 1751 O Come, all ye faithful, Joyful and triumphant, O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem. Come and behold Him, Born the King of angels! O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, Christ, the Lord! O sing, choirs of angels, Sing in exultation! O sing, all ye citizens of heaven above! Glory to God, all Glory in the highest! O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, Christ, the Lord! Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, Born this happy morning, O Jesus, to Thee be all glory given; Word of the Father, Now in flesh appearing! O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, Christ, the Lord!

This nativity began years ago with a gift of small figures. We would gather around it with neighborhood children to read the Christmas story and celebrate the birth of Jesus. At the brief mention that more sheep were needed for the pasture, offerings from family and friends began to arrive. As the number of sheep grew, so did the pastures, shepherds, and trees. The many sheep remind us that we are all unique and cherished in His sight.
