Glow (World of Color Honor Choir)
Softly falls the winter snow
Whispers to the sleeping world below:
“Wintertide awakes,”
Morning breaks and sets the earth aglow
In gentle tones of warmest white
Proclaim the glory of Auroroa’s light
Sparrow wings in a clear clean voice
A sweet, silver carol for the season born
Radiant wings as the skies rejoice
Arise and illuminate the morn
Softly falls the winter snow
Whispers to the sleeping world below:
“Glow, like the softly falling snow.”
