Thread Name: Lyr Req/Add: Silent Worship (Somervell, Handel)
Subject: RE: Req/ADD: Silent Worship
We're singing this song in school chior at the moment, im in year 11. it's such a pretty song, sounds awesome when its sung properly :)

the right lyrics are as McGrath of Harlow put them

Did you not hear My Lady
Go down the garden singing
Blackbird and thrush were silent
To hear the alleys ringing...
Oh saw you not My Lady
Out in the garden there
Shaming the rose and lily
For she is twice as fair.
Though I am nothing to her
Though she must rarely look at me
And though I could never woo her
I love her till I die.
Surely you heard My Lady
Go down the garden singing
Silencing all the songbirds
And setting the alleys ringing...
But surely you see My Lady
Out in the garden there
Rivaling the glittering sunshine
With a glory of golden hair.

YAY for old music!!!!!!!!
