Текст песни What sweeter music - City of London Sinfonia , Choir of King's College, Cambridge , John Rutter
What
sweeter
music
can
we
bring
Than
a
carol,
for
to
sing
The
birth
of
this
our
heavenly
King?
Awake
the
voice,
awake
the
string
Dark
and
dull
night,
fly
hence
away
And
give
the
honour
to
this
day
That
sees
December
turned
to
May
That
sees
December
turned
to
May
Why
does
the
chilling
winter′s
morn
Smile
like
a
field
beset
with
corn?
Or
smell
like
a
meadow
newly-shorn
Thus,
on
the
sudden
come
and
see
The
cause,
why
things
thus
fragrant
be
'Tis
He
is
born,
whose
quickening
birth
Gives
life
and
lustre,
public
mirth
To
Heaven
and
the
under
earth
We
see
Him
come,
and
know
him
ours
Who
with
His
sunshine
and
His
showers
Turns
all
the
patient
ground
to
flowers
Turns
all
the
patient
ground
to
flowers
The
darling
of
the
world
is
come
And
fit
it
is,
we
find
a
room
To
welcome
Him,
to
welcome
Him
And
all
of
heart
of
all
the
house
here
is
the
heart
Which
we
will
give
Him
and
bequeath
This
holly
and
this
ivy
wreath
To
do
Him
honour,
who′s
our
King
And
Lord
of
all
this
revelling
What
sweeter
music
can
we
bring
Than
a
carol,
for
to
sing
The
birth
of
this
our
heavenly
King?
The
birth
of
this
our
heavenly
King?
