"Night Song" - words by Marnanel Thurman, music by Chris Hutchings.

"Night Song" is for upper voices and piano. The first two verses are unison throughout: the third verse works best with two parts, but can be performed unison by a smaller choir.

There's an optional third part in the final few bars if you have enough voices, but this is not essential (if you only have two parts, sing the lower divisi so that the lower part finishes on the G).

Ideal for a children's choir, and the divisi is simple enough to be learned by ear for even the youngest singers.

Beautiful and effective lyrics by Marnanel Thurman (please do not use elsewhere without permission from the author):

When my room has sunk into darkness
When it’s crept to the depths of night
Then I fill my head with the words I read
In my book when the world was bright.

When my house is hushed into silence
When the sound all around me ends
Then my thoughts still hold all the tales I told
By the fire with the smiles of friends.

When the world is curled under blankets
When I doze and I close my eyes
Then my ears still ring with the songs I’ll sing
When I run when the sun shall rise.
