Other info: On This Night is a new lyric to a commission from 2019 of a three movement choral and big band work Praise All Things for Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church in Texas. The original 2nd movement was a setting of Psalm 150.

Will Todd says:

"I have created an alternative Christmas lyric for this piece as a stand-alone for my album All Will Be Well. The glowing jazzy melody inspired the lyrics celebrating the Christmas message"

On this night of God’s miracle
See a manger bed, and a child in Mary’s arms.
Born into a humble place, born into a sorrowing world,
A saviour to redeem us all by his birth.
All night I’m singing  alleluia
My heart is filled with alleluia
Kneel down and worship the Christ-child on this night.

See the shepherds who have come to him,
See their wonder as they gaze upon the Lord.
May I be a shepherd too, bowing to an infant king
And coming to a stable filled with heavenly light?
All night I’m singing  alleluia…

Will you hold me Lord, forever,
May you always be beside me through my days?
So that I may come at last into the house of God
And kneel with the Magi at the manger ?
All night I’m singing  alleluia…

 

On This Night is featured on the new album All Will Be Well with award winning choir Voices of Hope.
