1.
How like an angel came I down How bright are all things here
2.
Round and round the earth is turning Turning always round 'til morning And from morning round 'til night
3.
Over Stars 01:43
Over stars is mother wandering in her mantle's flowing robes Radiant threads of starlight woven for her little child she holds Throngs of stars behold her passing all the sky is filled with light With her hand she weaves and gathers blessings for the coming night Ask the sun to weave the sun's rays for her cloak so full of light Ask the moon to light the pathways for her child and make them bright Woven threads will not a robe make seek the children's love below With their love she weaves a robe to clothe her little child just so
4.
In the winter garden through the falling snow, Stars are gleaming, streaming, gleaming, Down to earth below. In the winter garden seeds lie warm below, Flow'rs are waiting, waiting, waiting For the spring to grow.
5.
Hanukkah lights, that cast a gentle glow, Make us think of miracles so long ago. By candles bright, each night we celebrate. Light one, then two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight!
6.
From my window, Where you can see the glow of my menorah On newly fallen snow I will send you one little candle on this the first night of Hanukkah I will send you two little candles ..
7.
Nerot Dolkim 01:20
Nerot dolkim nerot dakim Al kol chalon bar'chov Urim borkim urim zakim Bishme hatchol larov Burning candles, thin candles In every window in the street Lights shining, lights gleaming Many in the blue sky
8.
Shalom chaverim L'hitraot Peace, dear friends, Until we meet again
9.
The Earth is our mother, we must take care of her The Earth is our mother, we must take care of her Hey yanna ho yanna hey yan yan! Hey yanna ho yanna hey yan yan! The sacred ground we walk upon with every step we take The sacred ground we walk upon with every step we take Hey yanna ho yanna hey yan yan! Hey yanna ho yanna hey yan yan!
10.
If the people lived their lives As if it were a song for singing out of light Providing music for the stars To be dancing circles in the night
11.
Elk Herds 01:44
Evening finds the elk herds departing From the dunes and lakeside sands. And the night, the all embracing Mother, Spreads her mantle o'er the silent land. Bowing low, they drink the crystal water. Stars reflecting like the heav'ns above. Raise their heads and through their mighty antlers, Evening winds sweep gently as a dove. Silently, they leave the misty shores, The remnants of a long forgotten day. And they vanish in the distant spaces, Through the portals of eternity.
12.
Peace Round 01:42
What a goodly thing If the children of the world Could live together In peace
13.
Fly Fly Fly 01:52
Fly fly fly The leaves are leaving the branch Cold are the winds Winter is coming
14.
O come o come Emmanuel And ransom captive Israel That mourns in lonely exile here Until the Son of God appear Rejoice, rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel
15.
For us a child is born this day Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel!
16.
Silent Night 03:03
Silent night, holy night All is calm, all is bright 'Round yon Virgin Mother and Child Holy Infant so tender and mild Sleep in heavenly peace Sleep in heavenly peace Silent night, holy night Shepherds quake at the sight Glories stream from heaven afar Heavenly hosts sing, "Alleluia" Christ the Savior is born Christ the Savior is born 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

about

As we travel into the darkest period of earthly nature, and into the depths of our own being, there in the center we encounter the eternal light within our soul, which we then carry, radiantly beaming, out into the world for the sake of all humankind.

"How like an angel came I down
How bright are all things here."
