G'day again,


Here's another Australian Christmas Carol, refer to my posting above of Carol of the Birds.
Sing Gloria
Words by John Wheeler
Music by William G. James

The trees are whisp'ring a secret
From twilight to dawn -
The Lord who planted the bushland,
Tomorrow is born:
Sing Gloria! Sing Gloria! Sing Gloria in Excelsis.
Sing Gloria! Sing Gloria, Gloria, Gloria in Excelsis.

The creek that flows through the
Chants under the spray -
The Lord of sea and the
Will come with the day:
Sing Gloria! Sing Gloria! Sing Gloria in Excelsis.
Sing Gloria! Sing Gloria, Gloria, Gloria in Excelsis.

The sheep at browse in the ranges,
Are murmuring afar.
Our shepherd from Heav'nly pastures
Will come with a star:
Sing Gloria! Sing Gloria! Sing Gloria in Excelsis.
Sing Gloria! Sing Gloria, Gloria, Gloria in Excelsis.

Bob - that link appears to be dead. Have you got a working one?

G'day GUEST,

You're right ... the link is written in Alan's program. Either he is off the air (bushfires ... holiday glitches ... ?) or he needs to update the software.

I'll chase him on a local telephone call and see if I can resolve the problem. Otherwise, I could email the program material ... if I had a PM connection or an address.

Regards,

Bob Bolton
