Programme Note
Peace on Earth is a carol sung in unison over a haunting keyboard ostinato.
Errollyn Wallen sets her own text evoking winter, turning to light and warmth at Christmas, hoping for Peace on Earth.
And snow falls down on me.
Peace on earth.
The night is dark and soft.
Peace on earth.
The lights that sparkle in the square, The smoke the lingers in the air.
Peace on earth.
And grace falls down on me.
Peace on earth.
The dark will turn aside.
Peace on earth.
The fires that burn in ev'ry hearth
Do sing out praise of Christmas past.
Peace on earth.
Hear them singing.
Peace on earth.
