My love, my treasured one are you
My sweet and lovely son are you
You are my love, my darling you
Unworthy I, of you

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia

Your mild and gentle eyes proclaim
The loving heart with which you came
A tender helpless tiny babe
With boundless gifts of Grace

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia

King of kings, most holy one
God the Son, eternal one
You are my God and helpless son
High ruler of mankind

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia

Away in a manger no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing, the poor baby wakes
But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes
I love thee Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle ‘til morning is nigh

Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask you to stay
Close by me forever and love me, I pray
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care
And take us to heaven to live with you there

Here we come a caroling among the leaves so green
Here we come a wandering so fair to be seen
Love and joy come to you, and to you good Christmas too
And God bless you and send you a happy new year
And God send you a happy new year

We are not daily beggars who beg from door to door
But we are neighbor’s children whom you have seen before
Love and joy come to you, and to you good Christmas too
And God bless you and send you a happy new year
And God send you a happy new year

God bless the master of this house, likewise the mistress too
And all the little children that round the table go
Love and joy come to you, and to you good Christmas too
And God bless you and send you a happy new year
And God send you a happy new year

And all your kin and kinfolk that dwell both far and near
We wish a merry Christmas and a happy new year
Love and joy come to you, and to you good Christmas too
And God bless you and send you a happy new year
And God send you a happy new year

I saw three ships come sailing in on Christmas day on Christmas day
I saw three ships come sailing in on Christmas day in the morning
I saw three ships come sailing in on Christmas day on Christmas day
I saw three ships come sailing in on Christmas day in the morning

They sailed into Bethlehem on Christmas day on Christmas day
Sailed into Bethlehem on Christmas day in the morning
They sailed into Bethlehem on Christmas day on Christmas day
Sailed into Bethlehem on Christmas day in the morning

And all the bells on earth shall ring on Christmas day on Christmas day
All the bells on earth shall ring on Christmas day in the morning
And all the bells on earth shall ring on Christmas day on Christmas day
All the bells on earth shall ring on Christmas day in the morning

And all the souls on earth shall sing on Christmas day on Christmas day
All the souls on earth shall sing on Christmas day in the morning
And all the souls on earth shall sing on Christmas day on Christmas day
All the souls on earth shall sing on Christmas day in the morning

O come, O come, Emmanuel
To free your captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears

O Come, O wisdom from on high
Who orders all things mightily
To us the path of knowledge show
And teach us in her ways to go

Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to you, O Israel

And drive away the shades of night
And death’s dark shadows put to flight

Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to you, O Israel

O come desire of nations bind
In one the hearts of all mankind
O bid our sad divisions cease
And be for us our King of Peace

Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to you, O Israel

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o’er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains

Gloria — In Excelsis Deo
Gloria — In Excelsis Deo

Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song

Gloria — In Excelsis Deo
Gloria — In Excelsis Deo

Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing
Come adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord the newborn King

Gloria — In Excelsis Deo
Gloria — In Excelsis Deo

There’s no need to know it all
Dancing with the Autumn trees
Now’s the time for standing strong
Breathe

In the wind, there’s a comforting song
And I know that it’s time to move on

It’s a long road, but we’ll go together
And it’s a dark road, but what time is better?
‘Cause the music’s playing on
And we’re all singing this song
As we travel the road
We will carry on

There’s a place I used to go
Wonder with the golden leaves
Now’s the ending of all before
Dream

In the wind, there’s a comforting song
And I know that it’s time to move on

It’s a long road, but we’ll go together
And it’s a dark road, but what time is better?
‘Cause the music’s playing on
And we’re all singing this song
As we travel the road
We will carry on

There’s a story I used to know
Listen how the laughter sings
Now’s a time for holding on
Brave

In the wind, there’s a comforting song
And I know that it’s time to move on

It’s a long road, but we’ll go together
And it’s a dark road, but what time is better?
‘Cause the music’s playing on
And we’re all singing this song
As we travel the road
We will carry on

It’s a long road, but we’ll go together
And it’s a dark road, but what time is better?
‘Cause the music’s playing on
And we’re all singing this song
As we travel the road
We will carry on

Oh! Old saloon, deep maroon, we’re new to the town
A man walks in and sits himself down with us
Oh! Seeking gold, very old, he’s asking around
If we can help him he’ll reward us

Oh! Up at dawn with a yawn, we’re outta the town
He gives the lowdown, pickaxe, heavy packs
Oh! Hot sun, no fun, way outta the town
Follow the boot tracks now no going back

Not all that glitters is gold, so I’ve always been told
Not all that’s missing should be found - still, he turns to me and says:
Meet me at dawn
Up in the mountains
Near the trail with the hidden waterfalls
Superstition says there’s a gold mine no one can find
Ten years of searching
It’s in Arizona, maybe Colorado
Oh who knows?
I could still find it if I try

Oh! Take a nap, hear a snap, why’s there smoke in my eyes?
I can’t see Fred or Ted or anyone
Oh! Through the smoke, don’t choke, fire’s blocking the way
I drop and roll downhill to the creek bed

Oh! On my feet, don’t miss a beat, looking around
I think I found that dusty old trail again
Oh! Rattlesnake, big mistake, she’s looking around
I turn and run uphill to my friends again

Not all that glitters is gold, so I’ve always been told
Not all that’s missing should be found - still, he turns to me and says:
Meet me at dawn
Up in the mountains
Near the trail with the hidden waterfalls
Superstition says there’s a gold mine no one can find
Ten years of searching
It’s in Arizona, maybe Colorado
Oh who knows?
I could still find it if I try

Oh! Found the mine, lost the mine, is it all a mirage?
Prospector yells right up to the sky
Oh! Trail’s end, it’s the end, is it camouflage?
Prospector says it can’t deceive him

Oh! Pile of rocks, cave is blocked, it leads underground
The most lost-and-found-again gold mine
Oh! Old man stops, then he drops down onto his knees
And then he laughs and cries for a long time

Not all that glitters is gold, so I’ve always been told
Not all that’s missing should be found - still, he turns to me and says:
Meet me at dawn
Up in the mountains
Near the trail with the hidden waterfalls
Superstition says there’s a gold mine no one can find
Ten years of searching
It’s in Arizona, maybe Colorado
Oh who knows?
I could still find it if I try

When the work is done under August sun
We will dance all night under paintbrush skies
Tune your fiddle and come when the day is done
Play a merry tune for the shadow and sun

Oh shadow and sun
Oh sing shadow and sun
Oh shadow and sun
Oh sing - singin’ shadow and sun

And when the hard times come and the shadows fall
With your worn out shoes and a weary soul
Bring your fiddle and come when the day is done
Play the merry tune called the shadow and sun

Oh shadow and sun
Oh sing shadow and sun
Oh shadow and sun
Oh sing - singin’ shadow and sun

‘Til we meet again by the bonfire light
As I walk out and face the wind and rain
I will whistle and hum when the day is done
Sing our merry tune for the shadow and sun

Oh shadow and sun
Oh sing shadow and sun
Oh shadow and sun
Oh sing - singin’ shadow and sun

She arrives as night is falling
along the lantern way
Can you hear the starlings crying?
at the dying of the day

Her eyes are full of moonlight
I can see them from afar
She walks the way at twilight
and her coat is full of stars

Nightfall
And her coat is full of stars
Nightfall
And my dreams are full of stars

I will sleep with night surrounding
the moon is shining bright
In my dreams it’s all aligning
in the quiet of the night

Her eyes are full of moonlight
I can see them from afar
She walks the way at twilight
and her coat is full of stars

Nightfall
And her coat is full of stars
Nightfall
And my dreams are full of stars

She will leave when the sun is rising
along the morning way
Can you see the sparrows soaring?
At the dawning of the day

Her eyes are full of moonlight
I can see them from afar
She walks the way at twilight
and her coat is full of stars

Nightfall
And her coat is full of stars
Nightfall
And my dreams are full of stars

Fly fast along the water, o’er the woods of pine
Maybe I’ll leap forward, or go back in time
Zig-zag the rushing river, soar above the line
Maybe I’ll get closer, or get lost again

Dragonfly
Lift my wings and fly
Dragonfly
The river will take me all the way back home

Head south into the desert, under mountain caves
By following the river, I will be just fine
Weave ‘round the ancient cedar, it’s a lucky sign
I’ll stay this way forever, or I’ll change my mind

Dragonfly
Lift my wings and fly
Dragonfly
The river will take me all the way back home

Spin high into the thunder, through the pouring rain
Maybe I’ll go under, or I’ll chase the sun
Pass far but circle closer, don’t be terrified
Maybe I’ll take cover, or dance in the rain

Dragonfly
Lift my wings and fly
Dragonfly
The river will take me all the way back home

Dragonfly
Lift my wings and fly
Dragonfly
The river will take me all the way back home

Oh wise one - what do you see?
Road to nowhere, night so crystal clear
Starlight winter - maybe I’m searching
Owls soaring over the trees

What can you see?
What do you know?
‘Cause I’d give anything to know what you know
Show me your ways for my cloudy days
A north star for finding where we are
‘Cause I’m hoping to grow
Into a wise one
Oh
Into a wise one
Oh 

Oh wise one - wiser than me
Urgent whisper, wilder than the wind
Swift and silent - indigo feathers
Secret courage, send me a sign

What can you see?
What do you know?
‘Cause I’d give anything to know what you know
Show me your ways for my cloudy days
A north star for finding where we are
‘Cause I’m hoping to grow
Into a wise one
Oh
Into a wise one
Oh 

The more I grow, the less I know
Except that life is beautiful, but strange
The more I grow, the less I know
That nothing is predictable, but change
… and maybe the journey of life is in the wondering…

Oh wise one - shine ever on
Owls soaring, resilient and strong
Friendly smiles - when we’re together
Music soaring, brightness of dawn

What can you see?
What do you know?
‘Cause I’d give anything to know what you know
Show me your ways for my cloudy days
A north star for finding where we are
‘Cause I’m hoping to grow
Into a wise one
Oh
Into a wise one
Oh 

It's the little things that make a difference
Little things
It's the little things that make a difference,
Be the change you wish to see in the world

A group of men sat ‘round the fire
Telling old tales ’til the midnight hour 
Along came a stumbling little girl
Dancing around with a smile 
Her ma came running fast in her wake
Sorry kind sirs for that headache 
The group of men then a plea did make
Please don’t take her away 

We thought it was beautiful
oh, oh 
We thought it was beautiful
oh, oh 
We thought it was beautiful 

Walking through an ancient space
Young lads say what is this place? 
Fading light through windows cold
The whole thing seems too old 
But a woman there, she seems so wise
With a nice young face and lovin’ brown eyes 
Lads don’t like the ancient place
But she goes there everyday 

She thinks it is beautiful
oh, oh 
She thinks it is beautiful
oh 
She thinks it is beautiful
oh, oh 
She thinks it is beautiful
oh - hey! 

Climbing down from the mountains high
Danny’s father gave a tired sigh 
Well me boy, that’s it I’m done
Sweating all day in the sun 
The mountain’s never worth the pain
Climbing all day and with what gain? 
His little son then a sound did make
And Danny he did say 

I thought it was beautiful
oh, oh 
I thought it was beautiful
oh, oh 
I thought it was beautiful
oh 
I thought it was beautiful
oh 
I thought it was beautiful

Sunrise in the window
A vessel in the bay 
Her father was the captain
And he would sail today 

She fed the kitten and the hen
Jumped the gate and then 
She cut off her hair, found shoes to wear
To look like one of the men 

Her father he made fun
Oh no what have you done 
I know you’d love to come my dear
But Grace you’re far too young 

And he said:
No woman sails the sea
They would become weak at the knee 
Stay here, be safe, on Erin’s shore
Just listen here to me 
For you it cannot be
There are dangers out on the sea 
Stay here, be safe
On Erin’s shore just listen here to me 

She felt the sun on her face
The waves beneath her feet 
Her father stood beside her
Laughing at his own defeat 

She washed the cannon and the gun
Jumped the stairs and then 
The captain roared a warning
All hands on deck, my men 

Get down below my lass he said
This danger too shall pass 
My men and I will defend the ship
And you will be safe at last 

I will tell you a story of a girl young and bright 
Red sky at night was her favorite light 
Of saltwater, danger and true bravery 
And the day Grace O’Malley first sailed the sea 

Gunfire overhead
Dust fell to the floor 
Grace refused to stay below
And crept out of the door 

She climbed the rigging and the mast
Looked behind and then 
A man behind her father came
A pirate with dagger in hand 

She leapt down from the mast
Her cry alerted the crew 
Onto the pirate’s back she fell
Before he ever knew 

Here was an answer to their prayers
Victory was theirs 
She saved the ship from pirates and
She saved her father’s crew

And they said :
This woman sails the sea
she won’t become weak at the knee 
She is the pride of Erin’s shore
just listen here to me 
For her it will always be a life upon the sea 
She is the pride of Erin’s shore
just listen here to me 

I will tell you a story of a girl young and bright 
Red sky at night was her favorite light 
Of saltwater, danger and true bravery 
And the day Grace O’Malley first sailed the sea 

The boatman works alone
It’s the only live he’s ever known
A young man in life alone
Across the river every day
He ferries settlers o’er the rushing cool
Carries merchants through the rapids cruel
Even royals in their crown and jewel
Across the river on his own

Ya - da da da, a young man tall
Ya - da da da, ya da da da da da
Ya - da da da, the boatman’s call
Ya - da da da, ya da da da da da

The young woman lone she goes
Gathering flowers where the river flows
She is lovely as the mountain rose
And she needs passage on her way
She needs crossing late in emerald May
Sitting golden in the creak and sway
Our young boatman gave his heart that day
Across the river going home

Ya - da da da, a young man tall
Ya - da da da, ya da da da da da
Ya - da da da, for this girl did fall
Ya - da da da, ya da da da da da

Their world was set, planned
Always they would be
They didn’t fret, no
Not like you and me
Their world was small, there
Near the river free
Then came this fine, grand
Tale of he and she

Ya - da da da, this girl did fall
Ya - da da da, ya da da da da da
Ya - da da da, for the boatman’s call
Ya - da da da, ya da da da da da

And now they are not alone
Their lonely life by one has grown
Now they are not alone
They cross the river every day

They came from all over, blazing a trail
Like the snow that melts swiftly, from the peaks to the coast
They made a place there, for me to know
Like a tapestry woven, the colors of home

I miss the evergreen trees
I miss the comforting rain
I miss the grey of each misty new day
I miss the colors of my home
I miss the way the air feels
I miss the way that I know I belong
I miss the colors of my home

I grew up running pine needle trails
Moss green of the forest, the seagull’s bright call
Copper sunsets on a sapphire sea
Wide open spaces, as far as I can see

I miss the evergreen trees
I miss the comforting rain
I miss the grey of each misty new day
I miss the colors of my home
I miss the way the air feels
I miss the way that I know I belong
I miss the colors of my home

Call me back!
To the windswept beaches
Call me back!
To the fresh salt air
Call me back!
To the mountain reaches
Call me back!
Oh I feel so far away

They paint a memory, a part of me
It’s gold like the lightning that strikes violet skies
Crimson canyon, the evening’s red flame
Hear the chorus of voices calling my name

I miss the evergreen trees
I miss the comforting rain
I miss the grey of each misty new day
I miss the colors of my home
I miss the way the air feels
I miss the way that I know I belong
I miss the colors of my home

I miss the evergreen trees
I miss the comforting rain
I miss the grey of each misty new day
I miss the colors of my home
I miss the way the air feels
I miss the way that I know I belong
I miss the colors of my home

There were three sisters walked through the trees
Rose, Marie and Heather
When they chanced upon a lady so fine
And she was the Queen of the Fairies
The sisters were holding a party that night
Rose, Marie and Heather
But the lady was clever and blocked their path
And she was the Queen of the Fairies

The Queen beckoned the eldest one in
Away from her sisters a-waiting
’For you I would give all the gold in the land
Send away your worries and caring’
’No thank you, good Queen,’ the eldest one said
’I have enough to be happy’
And the sisters walked on to the edge of the trees
On the way home to the party

The Queen beckoned the middle one in
Away from her sisters a-waiting
’For you I would give all the praise in the land
They would finally all see you shining’
’No thank you, good Queen,’ the middle one said
’I prefer my quieter life here’
And the sisters walked on to the foot of the hill
On the way home to the party

The Queen beckoned the youngest one in
Away from her sisters a-waiting
’For you I’d give power over both of them
They’d finally bow down before you’
’No thank you, good Queen,’ the youngest one said
’I’m happy as I am’
And the sisters climbed up to the top of the hill
On the way home to the party

There were three sisters walked through the fields
Rose, Marie and Heather
Away from the fairy Queen’s lonely schemes
Journeying home together
The sisters held their party that night
Rose, Marie and Heather
With laughter and music and fruits of the field
Glad to be together

Good ‘ol moonlight through the night
Keep it up, good work, shining bright
I’ve waited all day for my chance to play
I’ll fiddle all night and I’ll sleep all day

This old fiddle’s seen every place
Miles on the road and dust on the case
Hey diddle diddle and a hop to the right
Like a cat with a fiddle in the pale moonlight

’Who’ said the owl ‘will watch with me’
’You and the moon and me make three
The dish and the spoon ran away last night
Hope the fork and the knife will be alright’

This old fiddle’s seen every place
Miles on the road and dust on the case
Hey diddle diddle and a hop to the right
Like a cat with a fiddle in the pale moonlight

’Oh’ said the mouse as she saw me there
’If I was not so small new shoes I’d wear
I’d join that fiddler for a dance or two
I’d leap and I’d tap ‘til he told me shoo’

This old fiddle’s seen every place
Miles on the road and dust on the case
Hey diddle diddle and a hop to the right
Like a cat with a fiddle in the pale moonlight

This old fiddle’s seen every place
Miles on the road and dust on the case
Hey diddle diddle and a hop to the right
Like a cat with a fiddle in the pale moonlight

He’s out at sea, sailing through the teal blue water
The ocean breeze carries him so far
He’s out at sea, cutting through the ice blue water
Through deepest night, he’s steering by a star

The bells on the hill are ringing out loud
Ring for our sailors, they’re coming home now
The sun fills the warm sand, the waves touch the shore
As my sailor comes home to me

He writes to me, treasures from a far-off island
Of wondrous things I’ve never seen before
He writes to me, cities castles wild and unknown
The gifts he’ll bring, from a foreign shore

The bells on the hill are ringing out loud
Ring for our sailors, they’re coming home now
The sun fills the warm sand, the waves touch the shore
As my sailor comes home to me

He promised me, he will be coming home tomorrow
So there I’ll be, watching from the cove
He promised me, he’s running down the ramp tomorrow
So there I’ll be, to bring him home with me

The bells on the hill are ringing out loud
Ring for our sailors, they’re coming home now
The sun fills the warm sand, the waves touch the shore
As my sailor comes home to me
