Traditional, F.Farian / F.Jay
SILENT NIGHT, HOLY NIGHT (STILLE NACHT, HEILIGE NACHT)
Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht!
Alles schläft, einsam wacht
Nur das traute hoch-heilige Paar.
Christ der Retter ist da!
Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht!
Alles schläft, einsam wacht
Nur das traute hoch-heilige Paar.
Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar,
Christ der Retter ist da!
Christ der Retter ist da!
Silent Night, Holy Night
Son of God
Love's pure light
Radiant beams from thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus Lord at Thy birth
Jesus Lord at Thy birth
Jesus Lord at Thy birth
Jesus Lord at Thy birth
SNOW FALLS OVER THE TREES (LEISE RIESELT DER SCHNEE)
Snow falls over the trees
Still and calm is the sea
There is a hush o'er the land
Christmas is almost at hand
Peace alone reigns supreme
Like in some wonderous dream
You feel like newborn so grand
Christmas is almost at hand
Leise rieselt der Schnee,
Still und starr ruht der See.
Weihnachtlich glanzet der Wald.
Freue dich, Christkind kommt bald!
HEAR YE THE MESSAGE
Hear ye the message that comes from afar
Up in the heavens there shines a new star
It's shining brightly and lights up the night
Leading the way to a wonderful sight
No one is lonely and no one forlorn
'Cause in the manger the christ child is born
Hear ye the message it's simple and clear
Time for rejoycing is finally here
Fore with the Christ Child there comes a new day
Taking your worries and sorrows away
Bury your hatred and bury your grief
Hear ye the message and start to believe
SWEET BELLS (SÜßER DIE GLOCKEN NIE KLINGEN)
Let's keep the christmas bells ringing, not just one day of the year
Let's keep the christmas bells ringing, not just one day of the year
The Christmas Medley by The Starlite Singers is composed of four traditional German and English Christmas carols that have been seamlessly woven together to form a beautiful medley. The first song in the medley is Silent Night, Holy Night (Stille Nacht, Heilige Nacht) which talks about the birth of Jesus Christ, the savior. The song describes the peaceful and tranquil night when Jesus was born, the joy of the shepherds, and the hope of salvation that was brought into the world. The second song is Snow Falls Over the Trees (Leise Rieselt Der Schnee) which speaks of the calmness and serenity that descends over the world during the Christmas season, as everyone is filled with love, kindness, and compassion. The third song, Hear Ye the Message, talks about the announcement of the birth of Christ by the angels, the light that radiates from the star, and the joy and happiness that fills the air. The final song in the medley, Sweet Bells (Süßer die Glocken Nie Klingen) is a joyous carol that celebrates the birth of Christ, the angels singing, and the ringing of church bells that spread the message of peace, love, and hope.
