Sing Songs of Light
Children Of One Light Are We
Children of One Light are We
clear and dark the night
stars are very bright
lantern shining seems so small.
See in single file we walk along,
singing joyfully our lantern song.
We go through the land
like a wild geese band
children of one light are we.
Glimmer Lantern Glimmer
Glimmer Lantern Glimmer
glimmer, lantern, glimmer...
little stars a-shimmer
over meadow, moor and dale
flitter flutter elfin veil.
Peewit peewit rik a tik a tik, roo coo, roo coo.
glimmer, lantern, glimmer...
little stars a-shimmer.
over rock and stock and stone,
wander tripping little gnome.
Peewit peewit rik a tik a tik, roo coo, roo coo.
Down With Darkness
Down with Darkness
Down with darkness, up with light,
Up with sunshine, down with night.
Each of us is one small light,
But together we shine bright.
Go away, deepest, darkest night,
Go away, give way to light!
I Go With My Little Lantern
I Go With My Little Lantern
I go with my little lantern,
My lantern goes with me.
In heaven the stars are shining,
On earth are shining we
The cock does crow, the cat says meow,
a e o
La-bimel-a-la-bamel-la boom, boom boom
The Sunlight Fast Is Dwindling
The Sunlight Fast is Dwindling
The sunlight fast is dwindling.
My little lamp needs kindling.
It’s beam shines far in darkest night,
Dear lantern guard me with your light.
La Luz está en mi
La Luz está en mi
