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

Sure on this shining Night 在這閃亮的夜晚 美國作家艾吉(James Agee, 1909-1955)是美國四O年代重要的小說家、編劇、電影評論與詩人，在他去世後才出版的傳記小說《A Death in the Family》使他榮獲1958年的普立茲獎。此曲歌詞節錄自〈描述天堂〉(Description of Elysium)一詩，收錄在1934年出版的「允許我遠航」(Permit Me Voyage)詩集中。 勞律森將此詩譜寫成為混聲四部合唱曲，配合詩作藉著景物抒懷，在歌詞shining（閃亮）一字，運用花腔式（一字對多音）的...    less

Lullaby baby, now reclining, Sing lullaby! Hush, do not wake the Infant King. Angels are watching, stars are shining Over the place where he is lying: Sing lullaby! Sing lullaby! Lullaby baby, now a-sleeping, Sing lullaby! Hush, do not wake the Infant King. Soon will come sorrow with the morning, Soon will come bitter grief and weeping: Sing lullaby! Sing lullaby! Lullaby baby, now a-dozing, Sing lullaby! Hush, do not wake the Infant King. Soon comes the cross, the nails, the piercing, Then in the grave at last reposing: Sing lullaby! Sing lullaby! Lullaby is the babe awaking? Sing lullaby! Hush, do not stir the Infant King. Dreaming of Easter, gladsome, morning, Conquering death, its bondage breaking: Sing lullaby!  less
