The Choir of St Paul's Cathedral, London, under the direction of John Scott, perform Sir John Goss' Christmas carol 'See Amid the Winter's Snow', sometimes known as 'Hymn for Christmas Day.' Treble solo by Anthony Way, from his album 'The Choirboy's Christmas.'
Anthony is among the best-known cathedral choristers of recent decades, having achieved fame and praise for his portrayal of choirboy Henry Ashworth in the BBC adaptation of Joanna Trollope's novel 'The Choir.'
Text:
See, amid the winter's snow,
Born for us on Earth below,
See, the tender Lamb appears,
Promised from eternal years.
Chorus:
Hail, thou ever blessed morn,
Hail redemption's happy dawn,
Sing through all Jerusalem:
Christ is born in Bethlehem!
Lo, within a manger lies
He who built the starry skies;
He who, throned in height sublime,
Sits among the cherubim.
(Chorus)
Say, ye holy shepherds, say,
What your joyful news today;
Wherefore have ye left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep?
(Chorus)
As we watched at dead of night,
Lo, we saw a wondrous light:
Angels singing 'Peace On Earth'
Told us of the Saviour's birth.
(Chorus)
Sacred Infant, all divine,
What a tender love was Thine,
Thus to come from highest bliss
Down to such a world as this.
(Chorus)
Teach, O teach us, Holy Child,
By Thy face so meek and mild,
Teach us to resemble Thee,
In Thy sweet humility.
(Chorus)
