Go, sleep little Jesus! the wind's riding by To set all the candles Alight in the sky. A candle for Kingship, Sweet laughter it brings And mirth's golden music, the riches of Kings. Go sleep little Jesus! the wind's riding by To set all the candles Alight in the sky But oh! in the skytop Up there I can see A cross, it's shining, It's shining on thee, Go sleep, little Jesus! the wind's riding by To set all the candles Alight in the sky. "Star Candles" is available on the compact disc Joyous Day! distributed through Clarion Records. For purchase info, visit www.utahchamberartists.org  less
