In high school, we would sing this every year in our Christmas concert. It is my favorite Christmas hymn and each year I miss singing it. Maybe someday I can sing it again. It warms my heart.
Superb melody touching lyrics. My favourite a classic which will live for generations Mr Ritter has been described as the church choir’s Andrew Lloyd Webber
Rutter is an absolute treasure. I can't help but be saddened to feel that this music and the wonderful traditions it represents is disappearing through the suicide of the West.
How do you capture the wind on the water? How do you count all the stars in the sky? How do 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 'til 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 'til 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 'til breaking of dawn Gloria Gloria in excelsis Deo Angels are singing; the Christ Child is born
You are very good and Rutter is a true genius! My choir sang "Candlelight Carol" with a new arrangment. Write this down on the research: you will love it for sure. Corale Novarmonia - Candlelight Carol (J. Rutter)
Christmas and John Rutter music, a must .
Beautiful singing and song. Thanks for sharing
The beautiful hymn is one of the first I sang in Choir at church. It was a night I remember accepting Christ. He is The Savoir but so much more.

Mine too ! It makes me very emotional to hear this song again.

A very English Carol, clear and precise, yet warm and emotional at the same time. I love it!
Perfection
So warm, so live music ❤

Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
Shine on His cradle 'til 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 'til 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 'til breaking of dawn
Gloria Gloria in excelsis Deo
Angels are singing; the Christ Child is born
From a spark to a flame
Beautiful
Very beautifully done!!
Lovely!
