about

Small, but welcome Christmas 2013 EP from Golau Glau. The Silver Tear tells the story of the old woman known by many names in different countries, at whose house the three wise men stopped on their way to meet the infant Jesus. Her own son died as a baby, and this prevented her from leaving with the men when invited to do so. Ever since, she searches for the baby and leaves tears and treats on the pillow of every child she finds that is not the Messiah or her little boy.
