Shepherds (1976)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] They wake up suddenly in the night There is light And figures dancing in the sky Clothed in more colours than the world can contain Gloria in excelsis [Verse 2] And all the silences of the night Leap in song Like that of a river cascading From the wild mountain to the slow human plain Gloria in excelsis [Verse 3] A child's cry sounds from far away It's almost day And in the brown-aired town away below Street travelers reap a star harvest And then go on their way Kyrie eleison Christe eleison
