Neil Diamond - Candlelight Carol lyrics

How do you capture

the wind on the water?

How do you count, all the stars in the sky?

How can you measure

the love of a mother

Or how can you write down

a baby's first cry?

Candlelight, angel light

Firelight and star glow

Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn

Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Angels are singing

The Christ child is born

Shepherds and wise men

will kneel and adore him

Seraphim round him their vigil will keep

Nations proclaim him

Their Lord and their Saviour

But Mary will hold him

And sing him to sleep

Candlelight, angel light

Firelight and star glow

Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn

Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Angels are singing

The Christ child is born

Find him in Bethlehem laid in a manger

Christ our Redeemer asleep in the hay

Godhead incarnate and hope of salvation

A child with his mother

that first Christmas Day

Candlelight, angel light

Firelight and star glow

Shine on his cradle till breaking of dawn

Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Angels are singing

The Christ child is born

Angels are singing

The Christ child is born
