Candlelight Carol lyrics at Christmas-Songs.Org:
How do you capture the wind on the water?
How do you count all the stars in the sky?
How can you measure the love of a mother?
Or how can you write down a baby's first cry?
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
Shine on His cradle till breaking of dawn
Gloria, gloria in excelsis Deo!
Angels are singing; the Christ Child is born.
Shepherds and wise men will kneel and adore Him
Seraphim round Him their vigil will keep;
Nations proclaim Him their Lord and their Saviour
But Mary will hold Him and sing Him to sleep
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
Shine on His cradle till breaking of dawn
Gloria, gloria in excelsis Deo!
Angels are singing; the Christ Child is born.
Find him at Bethlehem laid in a manger
Christ our Redeemer asleep in the hay
Godhead incarnate and hope of salvation
A Child with His mother that first Christmas Day
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
Shine on His cradle till breaking of dawn
Gloria, gloria in excelsis Deo!
Angels are singing; the Christ Child is born.
