3. The Great Commandment
A Pharisee asked Jesus, “Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?” Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the greatest and first commandment.  And a second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”
Matt 22:36-40
cf: Mark 12:29-31, Luke 10:25-28

While shepherds kept their watching  o'er silent flocks by night,  behold, throughout the heavens  there shone a holy light. (Refrain) 
The shepherds feared and trembled  when lo! above the earth  rang out the angel chorus  that hailed our Savior's birth. (Refrain)
