The Morning Stars Sang Together ‎#49

49. Live in love

1 In heaven awakes the gentle strain,
Live in love, live in love:
And earth repeats the sound again,
Live in love, live in love.
Where'er the tears of sorrow flow,
And the heart is filled with woe,
There speak in accents soft and low,
Live, oh, live in love.
In heaven awakes the gentle strain,
Live in love, live in love:
And earth repeats the sound again,
Live in love, live in love.

2 Soft angel voices chant the song,
Live in love, live in love:
And we below the notes prolong,
Live in love, live in love.
And when the heart from care is free,
When the time glides merrily,
Then that sweet voice still calls for thee,
Live, oh, live in love.
Soft angel voices chant the song,
Live in love, live in love:
And we below the notes prolong,
Live in love, live in love.
