[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
