Softly Through the Mellow Starlight

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16549 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Softly through the mel­low star­light Refrain First Line: Glory, glory, Christ is risen! Lyrics: 2 Softly through the mel­low star­light Steals a strain of sil­ver song; Lo, the ec­ho­ing hills pro­claim it, Waft the glad re­frain along. Refrain: Glory, glo­ry, Christ is ris­en! Whispered in the star­lit way, List the love­ly shades re-echo, "Christ the Lord is ris’n to­day." 3 Happy bands in shin­ing rai­ment Fill the arch of Heav­en’s dome, Sweep their harps to strains so ten­der, Wafted from their dist­ant home. [Refrain] 3 Softly through life’s shad­ed val­ley Comes once more the sil­ver strain, Borne on an­gel pin­ions to us, And we join the sweet re­frain. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: GUNTUR
