This lovely French carol is about two women that found out that Jesus was born and that he was very special. They went around the town to let everyone know. They made food for Mary and Joseph. They warned others to be very quiet as to not awaken Jesus if he was sleeping. This is in SATB parts with piano accompaniment. It has a unique intro and the last verse has SATB taking turns. cdboss@cvalley.net
Bring a Torch Jeanette, Isabella
French Carol

Â
Bring a torch
Bring a torch
Bring a torch
Bring a torch Jeanette, Isabella.
Â
Bring a torch, Jeanette, Isabella!
Bring a torch, to the stable call
Christ is born, tell the folk of the village
Jesus is born and Mary's calling.
Ah![a]Â Ah! Beautiful is the Mother!
Ah! Ah! Beautiful is her Child
Â
Who is knocking on the door?
Who is it, knocking like that?
Open up, we've arranged on a platter
Lovely cakes that we have brought here
Knock! Knock! Open the door for us!
Knock! Knock! Let us celebrate!
Â
It is wrong when the Child is sleeping,
It is wrong to speak so loud.
Silence, now as you gather around Him
Lest your noise should waken Jesus.
Hush! Hush! See how He slumbers;
Hush! Hush! See how He's fast asleep!
Â
Softly now unto the stable,
Softly for a moment come!
Look and see how charming is Jesus,
Look at Him there,]Â His cheeks are rosy!
Hush! Hush! See how the Child is sleeping;
Hush! Hush! See how He smiles in His dreams
