Once in the dear dead days beyond recall, When on the world the began to fall, Out of the dreams that rose on happy throng Low to our hearts Love sung an old sweet song; And in the dusk where fell the firelight gleam, Softly it wove itself into our dream.
Even today we hear Love's song of yore, Deep in our hearts it dwells forever more Footsteps may falter, weary grow the way, Still we can hear it at the close of day, So till the end, when life's dim shadows fall, Love will be found the sweetest song of all.
