Christmas at the Carillon - Conspirare

Is a light shinin’ in the heavens?Please shine for me.I come this nightI come to fightI bring no weaponI bring the lightOn my kneesThe light pass byThought my soul was gonna riseTo rise and flyIs a light shinin’…God made the stars to show their lightAnd the moon to glow by nightGod made the sun to shine by dayFrom heaven’s gate it shows the wayOh my good Lord, is a light shinin’ in the heavens?- African American Folk SongIt came a flowret bright. Amidst the cold of winterWhen half-spent was the night.SoñabaI dreamtthat my heart was happybut by my faith, Motherdreams are just dreams- 16 th century Spanish, anonymous(...this is to mother you, to comfort you, to get you throughthrough when your nights are lonelythrough when you dreams are only bluethis is to mother you…)Here Comes the LightI’m moving through the waterI’m bringing out what’s bestThe birds are singing peacefulI’m forgetting all the rest11
