"And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and said unto them, Fear not; for, behold, I bring you tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David, a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And it shall be a sign unto you. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, "Glory to God in the Highest, and on Earth, Peace, Good Will Toward Men."
