This compelling anthem presents an assortment of historic sacred texts, artfully compiled by the composer to form a complete setting, with alternative text for Lenten use. Firmly rooted in the English cathedral tradition, it was composed to mark the 900th anniversary of the Priory Church of St Bartholomew the Great, Smithfield, and features a short organ interlude and baritone solo before the closing hymn-like section setting a John Wesley translation of a text by G. Tersteegen.

God is here - John Rutter

Back in the 1990s I asked the choirmaster if we might do some John Rutter and he said no. (I still have him to thank for letting me use his old Roland MT-32 tone generator) After moving to a border town 30 miles away from Boston I heard Rutter's "Candlelight Carol" on the radio (WCRB) and knew I wanted to move back where my musical friends were. Nearly a quarter-century later the song still brings back warm tasty memories and I've put a virtual choir together to sing it.

This arrangement is based on one written for Church of the Assumption, Pittsburg

Candllight Carol, John Rutter cover

John Rutter and David Grant collaborated to create a musical entertainment based on Kenneth Grahame's beloved book 'The Wind in the Willows'. As part of the Finale a (possibly) repentant Toad looks lovingly around the home that he only recovered due to the help of his friends.

In this recording, David Barton plays the piano with the singing voice of Ruth Carlyle and the speaking voice of Nic Carlyle at the close. The illustration for the song is a picture of a box that Nic Carlyle painted with scenes from 'The Wind in the Willows'. We hope you will agree that 'Home is a special kind of feeling'.

Home is a special kind of feeling - John Rutter, 1986

John Rutter's beautiful 'Candlelight Carol', for which he wrote both the words and the music. has become a new Christmas classic. It is sung here in the 2021 solo version published by Oxford University Press as part of 'Oxford Solo Songs Christmas'. Ruth Carlyle sang to the pre-recorded accompaniment by Michael Higgins to make this recording.

How do you capture the wind on the water?
How do you count all the stars in the sky?
How can you measure the love of a mother?
Or how can you write down a baby's first cry?
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
Shine on his cradle 'til breaking of dawn
Gloria, gloria in excelsis Deo!
Angels are singing "The Christ child is born"

Shepherds and wise men will kneel and adore him
Seraphim 'round him, their vigil will keep
Nations proclaim him their Lord and their saviour
But Mary will hold him and sing him to sleep
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
Shine on his cradle 'til breaking of dawn
Gloria, gloria in excelsis Deo!
Angels are singing "The Christ child is born"

Find him in Bethlehem laid in a manger
Christ our redeemer, asleep in the hay
Godhead incarnate and hope of salvation
A child with his mother that first Christmas Day
Candlelight, angel light, firelight and star-glow
Shine on his cradle 'til breaking of dawn
Gloria, gloria in excelsis Deo!
Angels are singing "The Christ child is born"

1st verse
Is there a constellation 
to show you where my heart is
Tender estimation. 
Im sure you have planned destination
Just where I wanna be
Is there a constellation 
to show you where my heart is
Whats your estimation. 
To get to my height. 
In this cold & heart less world

2nd verse
Is it a manifestation
That you would come into my life?
Thee edification 
of all the things ive done right?
Even the wrong vibrations  lead me to your heart 
is it a manifestation
That you would come and bring some much joy to my world
This cold and heartless world
In this cold and heartless world
This cold and heartless world 

Vamp
Cold And Heartless World 

3rd Verse
Is it a constellation 
That brought you to me

Thanking the stars above me 
For bring me my joy.

I've been songwriting and composing since 1967 as an amateur in the positive sense of the term, composing on any tune that comes along in my head, a few times using clairaudience as a compositional aid.
Cockos and Spitfire have been an immense help in putting together the colors of my vision for each tune.
I was introduced to SoundCloud by a local historian's daughter who has since graduated to Spotify.
