Shine on Me - Spiritual, arranged by Rollo Dilworth Notes from the arranger: “Like many African-American spirituals, the melody of “Shine on Me” is built on a pentatonic scale, and it utilizes a text that has multiple meanings. The original text of this spiritual can be found in the opening chorus: Shine on me, Shine on me. I wonder if the lighthouse will shine on me.” The Cherubs have loved le...

    Pronunciation is almost there and actions need some cleaning up but other than that. Ka pai boys ka pai. Not bad for a bunch of Canadians. My question is where’d u get the sheet music from? I thought this was a Taonga for Dilworth high school to keep? The arrangers being J Clark and Claire Caldwell from Dilworth. Those boys from Dilworth are unreal when they sing this. So much heart goes into it. They have so much mana when they sing this moving audience and themselves to tears. All of them top blokes ua-cam.com/video/jL9XBHPZ7iU/v-deo.htmlsi=rnWi0gueVGs3t2mX

    I heard this for the first time this Christmas Eve in Beirut! Absolutely beautiful and I love that it is an original Arabic Christmas Carol with such beautiful lyrics! English Lyrics Translation that I found online: On the night of Christmas ... Hatred will vanish On the night of Christmas ... The Earth blooms On the night of Christmas ... War is buried On the night of Christmas ... Love is born Verse 1 When we offer a glass of water to a thirsty person, we are in Christmas When we clothe a naked person with a gown of love, we are in Christmas When we wipe the tears from weeping eyes, we are in Christmas When we cushion a hopeless heart with love, we are in Christmas Verse 2 When I kiss a friend without hypocrisy, I am in Christmas When the spirit of revenge dies in me, I am in Christmas When hardness is gone from my heart, I am in Christmas When my soul melts in the Being of God, I am in Christmas
