Noel: Christmas Eve 1913
(专辑: A Christmas Together - 1979)
A
frosty Christmas Eve, when the
stars where shining, I
traveled for the
home, where westward falls the
hill. And for many, many a
village, in the
darkness of the
valley, distant music reached me, peels of bells were ringing. Then spread my thoughts to olden times, to that first of Christmases when shepherds who were watching, heard music in the
fields. And they sat there and they marveled, and they knew they could not tell whether it were angels, or the
bright stars a
singing. But to me heard a
far, it was starry music, the
singing of the
angels, the
comfort of our Lord. Words of old that come a
traveling, by the
riches of the
times, and I
softly listened, as I
stood upon the
hill. And I
softly listened, as I
stood upon the
hill.
