Candlelight Carol - St. Ferdinand Male Choir

St. Ferdinand Male Choir singing "Candlelight Carol" by John Rutter at the Buon Natale Concert rehearsal on December 10, 2010 at St. Ferdinand Cathedral, Lucena City, Philippines.

Candlelight Carol

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, fire light, 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 savior
But Mary will hold him and sing him to sleep

Candlelight, angel light, fire light, 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, fire light, and star glow
Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn
Gloria! Gloria in excelsis deo
Angels are singing
The Christ child is born
