SKU: A0.1008085
Composed by Connie Pwll Walck Tyler. Christmas,Sacred,Spiritual. Octavo. 3 pages. Connie Tyler #4629439. Published by Connie Tyler (A0.1008085).This song for voice and piano talks of the promise of spring after a long winter, but also talks of the nurturing darkness of the winter. It was originally written as a Christmas Carol, but might be more appropriate as a Soltice song.
Words are:
In the dark of win-ter the bulbs and the seeds
lay deep in the nur-tur-ing earth.
'Tis a time of re-new-al, a time of sleep
a-wait-ing the pro-mise of birth.
Come new life, come out of the dark.
Rise to the pro-mise of spring.
Come new life, come out of the warmth.
See what the new life will bring.
In the dark of night we go to our beds
and ga-ther new strength in our dreams.
'Tis a time of rest, a time to sleep
a-wait-ing the sun's morn-ing beams.
A-wak-en my soul! Come out of the dark.
Rise to the pro-mise of dawn.
A-wak-en my soul! Come out of the warmth.
See how the day is re-born.
Come new life, come out of the dark.
Rise to the pro-mise of spring.
Come new life, come out of the warmth.
See what the new life will bring.
A-wak-en my soul! Come out of the dark.
See how the day is re-born.
A-wak-en my soul! Come out of the warmth.
Rise to the pro-mise of dawn!
