This version is from the Noteworthy Christmas CD, and is performed by the Chor Leoni Mens Choir. The illustration is Peter Paul Rubens' "Adoration of the Magi". The Latin lyrics and English translation follow: Gaudete, gaudete! Christus est natus Ex Maria virgine, gaudete! Rejoice, rejoice! Christ is born Of the Virgin Mary — rejoice! Tempus adest gratiæ Hoc quod optabamus, Carmina lætitiæ Devote reddamus. The time of grace has come— This that we have desired, Verses of joy Let us devoutly return. Deus homo factus est Natura mirante, Mundus renovatus est A Christo regnante. God has become man, To the wonderment of Nature, The world has been renewed By the reigning Christ. Ezechielis porta Clausa pertransitur, Unde lux est orta Salus invenitur. The closed gate of Ezechiel Is passed through, Whence the light is born, Salvation is found. Ergo nostra contio Psallat iam in lustro; Benedicat Domino: Sal...    less

I am proud of my musical colleagues for putting these videos together. I thank them for their loyalty to our fans and their fellow choir members, and for their diligence in preparing individual performances to such a demanding degree of musicianship. We all share an understanding of how important it is right now to share the joy of song with the world. Joined by my wife Holly and all the members of the Stairwell Carollers, we wish you peace and joy this Christmas season. We will perform live for you once again soon.

Artistic director James Rodde. Hushed are the pigeons cooing low On dusty rafters of the loft; And mild-eyed oxen, breathing soft, Sleep on the fragrant hay below. Dim shadows in the corner hide; The glimmering lantern's rays are shed Where one young lamb just lifts his head, Then huddles 'gainst his mother's side. Strange silence tingles in the air; Through the half-open door a bar Of light from one low-hanging star Touches a baby's radiant hair. No sound: the mother, kneeling, lays Her cheek against the little face. Oh human love! Oh heavenly grace! 'Tis yet in silence that she prays! Ages of silence end to-night; Then to the long-expectant earth Glad angels come to greet His birth In burst of music, love, and light! Margaret Deland  less

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
