Spirit of music – Bach and Brahms
Pay homage to them in parables and psalms
Lo, tho-o they are sadly gone
They through our voices go caroling on
With humble strength we sing good cheer
Let joy replace despair and fear
Sweet minstrel sounds to draw you near…
With humble strength we sing good cheer
Spirit of music souls aflight
Vivaldi and Handel lend us light
Blessed by the muses that grace the night
Freed from the shadows, emerging so bright
Hearts unencumbered we shall sing
Clear harmonies will richly ring
Dispelling winter’s icy sting…
Hearts unencumbered we shall sing
Instrumental
Spirit of music – Bach and Brahms
Pay homage to them in parables and psalms
Lo tho-o they are sadly gone
We through their music go caroling on
And so we bid you join in song
We bid you rise and sing along
Though weak alone – together strong…
And so we bid you come join in song
With humble strength we sing good cheer
Let joy replace despair and fear
Sweet minstrel sounds to draw you near…
With humble strength we sing good cheer
With humble strength we sing good cheer
Ah-ah-ah-alleluja, Caroling, Caroling on
Ah-ah-ah-alleluja, Caroling, Caroling on
Repeat and fade
