Artistic director James Rodde. Hushed are the pigeons cooing low On dusty rafters of the loft; And mild-eyed oxen, breathing soft, Sleep on the fragrant hay below. Dim shadows in the corner hide; The glimmering lantern's rays are shed Where one young lamb just lifts his head, Then huddles 'gainst his mother's side. Strange silence tingles in the air; Through the half-open door a bar Of light from one low-hanging star Touches a baby's radiant hair. No sound: the mother, kneeling, lays Her cheek against the little face. Oh human love! Oh heavenly grace! 'Tis yet in silence that she prays! Ages of silence end to-night; Then to the long-expectant earth Glad angels come to greet His birth In burst of music, love, and light! Margaret Deland  less

Performed by Salvacosta Keys - Alvin Allison STAR OF BETHLEHEM There is a child, whose wish for Christmas Lies far beyond what she can see And with the sunrise she runs to rainbow's end Searching for her dreams She sits alone where none can reach her Beside the tree with silver trim And in the evening she wishes on a star For Another friend Star of Bethlehem, Star of Bethlehem I can see you shining bright Star of Bethlehem Star of Bethlehem, Star of Bethlehem Guide me to the Child of Light Star of Bethlehem There is a Child within a manger Whose love can reach the smallest heart From kings to shepherds To everyone of us whose dreams are torn apart And he was born for all the children Who watch the snow and dream their dream He ...    less
