Winter Solstice Concert - 19th December 2010 

Winter Solstice.

By Paul Mansfield

This truly is our darkest hour

We cannot reap, we cannot sow

The sun hides long behind the stars

The seeds lay dormant, cold below.

Everywhere we see the white

Of nature's blanket soft and cold

We sit around our fires so warm

Where stories of the past are told.

We deck our houses, bright and gay

A thousand lamps against the night

We sing our songs of life anew

Looking forward to the light.

The Earth, our mother, sleeps her sleep

The Green Man hides inside her breast

The creatures of the woods and fields

Sleep the sleep in winter nests.

For yes this is our darkest hour

But if tomorrow comes the dawn

We know that life will start again

The things now dead will be reborn.

The cycle that goes on and on

Continues now and always will

The time of warmth will come again

Father Sun will light us still.

So hail the Solstice, darkest time

A time of change and new rebirth

When light can chase away the dark

And warmth returns to Mother Earth.
