There Are Things That Creep in the Night
arr. for orchestra by John Floyd Campbell
There are things that creep in the night,
They make grown men’s knees weak at night,
There are things that creep in the night,
They make walls and floors creak at night.
Hearing things that creep and crawl,
I wonder how one sleeps at all,
There are things that creep in the night.
There are things that creep in the night,
They make people shriek late at night,
There are things that creep in the night,
The darkness won’t reveal them at night.
Hearing scraping in the hall,
Guarantees to cast a pall,
There are things that creep in the night.
When I am awoken in the night by ghostly sounds,
Counting sheep will seldom be the fix,
I’ve been told to meditate on peaceful mountain streams,
But all that comes to mind is that ghastly River Styx,
Yes, that Styx.
There are things that creep in the night,
They make grown men’s knees weak at night,
There are things that creep in the night,
They make walls and floors creak at night.
They go prowling in your dreams,
Making even monsters scream,
Even underneath the sheets
One can’t seem to sleep a wink,
Hearing things that creep and crawl at night.
There are things that creep in the night,
There are things that creep in the night.
Dark, Cold, Windy Night

Long ago on a dark, cold, windy night,
All was not calm and all was not bright,
Three wise men had followed a lone mysterious light,
It was a dark, cold, windy night.
Lonely night; dark, cold, lonely night,
Mother was crying as she held her baby tight,
Baby was cold and hungry at this squalid sight,
It was a dark, cold, windy night.
Mother she cried as she held him tight,
This baby she loved was bathed in starry light,
She held him tight at this holy site,
It was a dark, cold, lonely night.
Baby cried, little child it cried,
Could it be that baby cried all night long?
Was it the wind that they heard all that night,
Or was it the angels in song?
Long ago on a dark, cold, windy night,
All was not calm and all was not bright,
Three wise men had followed a lone mysterious light,
It was a dark, cold, windy night.
It was a dark, cold, holy night.

By yon Bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes,
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond,
Where me and my true love were ever won’t to gae,
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o’ Loch Lomond.
‘Twas there that we parted in yon shady glen,
On the steep, steep side o’ ben Lomond,
Where in deep purple hue, the highland hills we view,
And the moon coming oot in the Gloaming.
O’ ye’ll tak the high road, and I’ll tak the low road,
And I’ll be in Scotland afore ye;
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o’ Loch Lomond.
The bonnie banks, the bonnie banks o’ Loch Lomond.
Where in deep purple hue, the highland hills we view,
And the moon coming oot in the Gloaming.
And the moon coming oot in the Gloaming.
The wee birdies sing, and the wild flowers spring,
And in sunshine the waters are sleeping,
But the broken heart will ken nae second Spring again,
‘Though the waeful’ may cease fae their greeting.
O’ ye’ll tak the high road, and I’ll tak the low road,
And I’ll be in Scotland afore ye;
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o’ Loch Lomond.

T-REX
for SA and piano
Text by John Floyd Campbell
view score
Sixty-six million years ago from last Friday,
There lived a frightening king,
A king that still haunts the dreams of young children
Who often wake with blood-curdling screams.
With his muscular jaw and his razor sharp teeth,
This king had a bone-crunching bite.
With his powerful legs and a whip for a tail,
Seldom would he lose a fight.
But his brawn doesn’t tell the whole story,
Although it is true he could brawl.
His brain, and sharp senses, and hunting in herds,
Made up for his arms that were small.
Did I tell you he was off-the charts vicious?
His smile would reveal blood-stained teeth,
His neighbors were many and varied;
He found them delicious to eat.
So now I hope you are sitting,
‘Cause what I say next may surprise,
This scaly king had feathers,
But you never would have seen him fly.
It’s been sixty-six million years since tragedy struck,
Earth became a desolate place,
After a one in a trillion collision
With a rock from outer space.
It wasn’t too long before death gripped the king,
Along with other creatures, too,
All that remains are their fossilized bones,
So don’t look for him in a zoo.
But let’s not forget this remarkable creature
Even though he lived long ago,
To all those nights of our terror-filled sleep,
The nightmares to T-Rex we owe.

Sweet the sound of someone laughing on a winter night,
As the fire burned low.
Sweet the sound of popcorn popping
On that night, on that night,
Sweet the sound of children laughing
On that night, that winter night, winter night.
Long ago in the Bosque Valley cold the wind did blow,
Love was warm in the Bosque Valley as the fire burned low,
As the fire burned low.

But come ye back when summer’s in the meadow,
or when the valley’s hushed and white with snow,
T’is I’ll be there in sunshine or in shadow,
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so.
And if you come when all the flowers are dying,
If I am dead as dead I well may be,
You’ll come and find the place where I am lying,
And kneel and say an “Ave” there for me.
And I shall hear tho’ soft you tread above me,
And all my dreams shall warmer, sweeter be,
And you will bend and tell me that you love me,
And I shall sleep in peace, Danny boy,
Sleep in peace, until you come to me.

Songs of a baby who slept on the hay?
Songs of three kings who knelt where he lay,
Toss away worries on this Christmas Day.
Cold wind whispers its sound, White snow deep on the ground.
Music, it’s all around us, Music, it may astound us,
Fa la tra lay, astound us, Fa la tra lay, Fa la tra lay.

We have been dreaming for a brand new day!
Life’s not always easy, and sometimes we live in fear,
But life is such a miracle, a new day is always near.
Breathe deep, Breathe the air into each day we live.
Seize this day,

Shepherds left their flocks a-straying,
God’s command with joy obeying,
When they heard the angel saying:
Ò Christ is born in Bethlehem.
Wise men came from far, and saw him
knelt in homage to adore him;
Precious gifts they laid before him:
Gold and frankincense and myrrh.
Let us now in every nation
Sing his praise with exultation.
All the world shall find salvation
In the birth of Mary’s Son.

The moon has a face like the clock in the hall;
She shines on thieves on the garden wall,
On streets and fields and harbour quays,
And birdies asleep in the forks of the trees.
The squalling cat and the squeaking mouse,
The howling dog by the door of the house.
The bat that lies in bed at noon,
All love to be out by the light of the moon.
But all of the things that belong to the day.
Cuddle to sleep to be out of her way;
And flowers and children close their eyes
Till up in the morning the sun shall rise.

Streaks of gold in the Eastern sky,
night fading away,
Seabirds soar in the eastern sky,
oon will come a new day.
The sun will rise, the sun will rise this day.
We long for a new day,
The stars will sleep soon, and they will dream,
Will the day be filled with wonder,
Will the day be filled with laughter,
With people singing?
The stars will soon be dreaming,
and the sun beams will soon be stealing
bright through our windows,
Bringing life to each willow and rose.
But ev’ry day a young child cries,
And ev’ry day a young child dies
We’re on the brink of tomorrow,
We stand on the edge,
We have the hope of a new way to live,
We’re on the edge of the dark of the night.
The sun will rise, and our slumbers will fade away,
Soon our slumbers will drift away,
No one can see tomorrow,
No one can see what the future might bring,
Will it bring grief and sorrow,
Or will it bring joy and peace,
On one knows, no one knows.
Streaks of gold in the Eastern sky,
Night melting away,
On the brink, to feel life,
In the east we see new light.
Feel, feel this life,
Soon will be a new day. Live.
