Softly As In A Morning Sunrise

Softly as in a morning sunrise

The light of love comes stealing

Into a newborn day

Flaming with all the glow of sunrise

A burning kiss is sealing

A vow that all betray

For the passions that thrill love

And take you high to heaven

Are the passions that kill love

And let it fall to hell

So ends the story

Softly as in a morning sunrise

The light that gave you glory

Will take it all away

Softly as in a morning sunrise

The light of love comes stealing

Into a newborn day

Flaming with all the glow of sunrise

A burning kiss is sealing

A vow that all betray

For the passions that thrill love

And take you high to heaven

Are the passions that kill love

And let it fall to hell

So ends the story

Softly as in a morning sunrise

The light that gave you glory

Will take it all away

Softly as it fades away

Softly as it fades away

Softly as it fades away

Softly as it fades away
